think you need to buy the whole unit with the three knobs and the buttons. check realoem.com
if you find another way let me know, because I'd love to replace the cheap looking plastic knobs with something nicer!

+1. You have to buy the whole unit.

I'm trying to find the part numbers for the items on the image below. I'm not sure if its possible to buy the outer rings of the control knob (i.e. the temp numbers) or not.
If someone can point me the right the directions I'd be grateful.

Thanks for that - although sadly they are al in F, rather than C as needed in the UK.
Can someone please take a picture of the rear of their advance A/C controls - as i'd like to see if it can be switched over.
Thanks.

Right I've been looking into this mod and I can see that a fit could just work!
I'm 99% the fan speed and the some of the buttons will work. But without playing with the cables on advance AC car I can't really progress.
If someone with the advance AC feels kind enough to help - please PM me, I need someone to disconnect each of the (3) cables on the back of the unit one by one - and stating what is no longer working by doing this. Also if anyone has a spare a/c control (advance and normal) that they would like to post to me for this experiment that would be great (I dont mind paying for the postage).
My theory is: Either completely replace the units with each other, by changing the connectors - but the issue would be here you would not be able to select the airflow.
Or - find away to replace the control knobs over and use the original faceplate - this would mean swapping the selectors around some how?!
Here are some pics of the connectors.
