All mounting points to the chassis have rubber grommets to minimise any vibration from the blower.

Fitted the first one (ignore how bent the outlet air pipe is - the commercial units will have the outlet moved closer to the front of the car to avoid it being bent)
Lots of air, massive amounts of heat. Really not looking forward to testing it over the next few days. Unlike the previous design the washer unit stays in its original position.

I'm assuming that people on the old list are still interested, so no you shouldn't need to.

I think so, with the exception to Bargi who still needs one.

I'm placing one large order for almost all the parts - the smaller parts (resistors, valves ect) will be ordered as they assembled, so I should be able to complete the list pretty quickly. I'm still targeting end of the summer to complete this list.
I'm currently talking to my brother who lives in MK about heater fitting - he is a mechanic and more than capable of fitting them and more importantly, making himself available for fitting so I don't have a set price yet, but it won't be unreasonable.

When it's a hot sunny day are you able to completely stop the heat coming through when turned off?

Blowers are on order, I will be able to start completing orders in five weeks.
Yes.
This design uses a bypass valve to control the flow of water through, or around the heater. The heater can be completely bypassed, thus staying cold.
(however this is all hypothetical because we won't actually get a hot, sunny day)

Yes, the dial will be replaced with an electronic unit to avoid stuck selectors.
