1980 300CD ACC Questions

Greetings all,
I have aquired a rather nice 300CD but have fought with the climate control system from the beginning. The car is equipped with the archaic Chrysler servo system but it does have the GM R-4 compressor. I am at the point I am ready for a change. I have access to a 1981 300d that has the Mercedes style ACC system and was wondering has anyone ever converted a Chrysler style setup to the better Mercedes setup. I realize that it would involve a lot of wiring changes and possibly even an evaporator case change but I feel that the work would be welcomed with a properly functioning climate control system. I have considered replacing the servo and the amplifier but the cost is so great that I can buy an entire junk car cheaper. Any other ideas on getting this thing to work again without spending a heapof money? Winter is approaching and heat would be great.

Aaron
