Okay since I decided to add ac & screwed up the heater setup I had. I have been regretting it. This topic of heat has come up plenty. I will be mounting Hair Dryers one on each side. Still deciding on wiring them together or separate. Anyone think both will be to taxing on the electrical system? They heat up quick so will not be run for to long a time. Just to help defrost the windows & get some heat in the cab at the opportune moments. Some may think this a bit on the Goofy side but it's a cheap easy thing to try. So why not

Jamie, just put the water heat back in the car, if you are using an under dash A/C unit they make them with water heat and defrost, I think that is what Kent did for his build. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Vintage air makes them. 11400-VUZ-A - SlimLine Under Dash System Heat/Cool/Defrost Black Louvers located down the page a ways.
Or you can be (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) like me and figure out one of the mini systems from Vintage Air fits, but you have to do a bit of cutting. A/C, Heat, and Defrost via the factory locations, no under dash unit or need to modify the center console unless you want to. You just have to cut up the car, move the fan, and (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |
