I'm curious if anyone here has ever put some sort of electric heater into their 914. 914-6 heat exchangers, or equivalent, are $1500+. A header can be had for $400 and increases performance. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I can live without heat per se, but I will really need a defog option in my car for rainy days. Anyone rigged something up? Care to share?

I need to keep the windshield defogged when rainy. I can actually live w/o heat in the car except for that. Honestly NO heater/defroster is better than a weak one. My 914 has headers so no heat for me, but I found that I could keep the windows from fogging up on the inside by keeping the window cracked an inch or so ... sure it makes the interior colder, but bundle up and you'll be fine. As for keeping the windshield defrosted ... there's a long list of reasons not to take the teener out in the ice and snow. |
