Has anyone ever done this? What was used for the heater core? How were the coolant lines run to the heater? I'm in the Northeast, and heat is necessary if I want a driving season that's more than 4 months long.

I’m also interested in doing this… anyone have trouble with the heater core being exposed to rain fogging up the windshield on a cold rainy day?

QUOTE(theer @ Nov 11 2022, 11:25 AM)  I’m also interested in doing this… anyone have trouble with the heater core being exposed to rain fogging up the windshield on a cold rainy day? I added some baffles and drains that have worked well. I have driven in rain, snow, and sleet. Wouldn’t choose to do it, but once the car is warm there is no fogging, but I often crack the window to keep air flowing through. The cabin is pretty well sealed otherwise. |
