2001 f150 supercrew AC swap??

I have a 2001 supercrew that I want to put the digital AC controls in.
my manuals went out and I have access to a few digital controls either from f150s or expeditions. I know I have seen these in the truck so it has to work some how...is it just a plug it in and go? or is there more to it?

Thanks.

EATC in a truck with manual controls is not just plug and play. In addition to the controls, the actuators on the heater/AC box are different (vacuum vs, electrical). The associated wiring is different along with the need for an interior temp sensor and possibly a sun load sensor and others. It could probably be done if you had a donor truck available.

Manual controls go out?
The fan switch is replaceable.
The Hot/Cool blend switch is replaceable.
The Mode switch is replaceable.
The Knobs are replaceable.

All are a reasonable cost replacement part.
