Requesting help from Overseas

As the title says, I need some help and would like to know if you guys/girls would be willing to oblige.

In case you didn't know, the USDM Evo VIII/IX came with manual climate controls, meaning instead of being automatic and computer controlled, they are driven by cables. This leaves a very uneven, cheap, and down right trashy feel when ever I go to adjust my climate controls. This is where you guys come in.

Seeing as I am in the US, I don't know the first place to start when it comes to locating EDM or European Domestic Market parts. I want to replace the entire HVAC system in my car with the system from a EDM Evo IX. I know it is going to be pricey and a pain, etc. I just need to know where you guys would go to get the parts I need. What websites are the best? What dealerships have you guys had good experience with and might be able to order and ship the parts to me?

Any input/help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you.

after a quick talk with a UK guy off the top of our heads you would need motors, fans, sensors and basically a new dash.

personally way more than i'd want to invest for climate control
