One of the holes is for the temp sensor, the other is behind the dash panel.

Here in Finland it costs 500 Eur, including labour work. The dealer said that it can not be factory ordered even if wanted, but only fitted by service guys afterwards. I'm getting this in two weeks or so.

Why would that be? Doesn't Ford trust the quality?

Does it strain the airco pump to much or does a climate control dip the fuel consumption to new unacceptable depths.

Operationally it won't put anymore strain on the aircon/engine/mpg than the standard system. All it's doing is controlling the temp and air distribution automatically.

I expect it to be available as a factory option in the 2015 MY vehicles.

Okay, but what would be the reason that Ford doesn't factory fit the kit. I can't imagine this car was actually developed without CC.

Because it would mean changing working practices on the production line, and Ford don't like doing that!

I was just told by Veho and Vaunula that it can be ordered but not installed as it needs softwere update, that they will recive maybe in the end of the year
