Always wanted to do this but wasn't sure if it was plug and play then another R owner, Ian Lawler did it and posted pics on the FB page so I gave it a go.
Bought a used 2016 LX Civic Climate control off eBay for $38. All plug and play. Took like 5 mins to install, no tools needed, snap together. Part number 79600TBAA112.
Why? No more laggy controls from the touch screen! Everything works, even in reverse but you lose dual zone (didn't need it). Lights all match as well. I circled the temps to show it changes with the new controls.
Also with these controls you can now use an aftermarket radio, here is the radio bezel: https://tinyurl.com/y9vep7fu
How to remove the climate controls/ radio (not me):
