So as the weather gets cold again, I realize that with my increasing age I need to do something about heat in the 914 if i want to drive it comfortably.
I'm running a header and most all the ducting on the car has been pulled out. I've been researching all the threads on here about electric heaters and the Webasto heaters, etc.....I found this! Thinking I can maybe mount inside or in place of the cowl airbox and run a couple hose into the cabin. What y'all think? |

The problem is, a 480 watt electric heater won't heat up your car. At all. |
