And for sources you are claiming everything off of one guys post in your thread? How does that make your info definitive?
Again, I would like to see some documentation on this so I can learn from it. Other than that, I think the sun sensor being tied into the climate control system is a load of bull.

Easy enough... The documentation is located on pages 284 and 285 of the 2008 300C electronic owners manual (the pages in your hardcopy manual may vary)... Since that's probably too hard for you to figure out, I'll copy and paste it for you below:
"Automatic Operation
The Infrared Dual-Zone Climate Control System automatically
maintains the climate in the cabin of the vehicle
at the comfort levels desired by the driver and passenger.
To accomplish this, the system gathers information from
the controls on the climate control, from a dual sunsensor
located in the top of the instrument panel, from an
infrared sensor located in the face of the climate control,
and from various sensors located throughout the vehicle.
The controls on the climate control provide the system
with operator input. The dual sun-sensor monitors sun
load coming through the windshield. The infrared sensor
independently measures the surface temperature of the
driver and passenger. Other sensors take account of
vehicle-speed, A/C pressure, outside temperature, and
engine cooling temperature. Using all of these inputs, the
system automatically adjusts airflow temperature, airflow
distribution, airflow volume, and the amount of
outside air recirculation. This maintains a comfortable
temperature even under changing conditions."
See - it pays to do research.
