Sign me up if you are making for LHD

 

Great, that's three - i'm waiting to hear back from my supplier but that should be enough to justify costs.

[fezzasus]

I will have two more RHD units ready by the end of the week

[fezzasus]

Down to one unit.

[MrGman]

I really am tempted by one of these at the moment.

 

Another reason i don't use the standard heater much is the amount of dust/crap that gets blown around the cabin, I know of the 'tights' fix and the 'gauze' over the inlets, but i'd prefer something a bit more 'proper'! have you ever looked at trying to build in a replaceable filter into the new units?

It does have a filter built in to it, however it's not replaceable because it essentially self clears - once the fan is turned off the debris drops from filter, clearing the filter.

 

I've been running mine for about a year and a half now and don't get any debris in the cabin - it would be noticeable too as my dash is fabric covered.

Another satisfied customer, I fitted mine last week. I cant offer a comparison as I had zero heat from my original as the unit was completely cracked and open. But the new unit is nice and warm. I took me about 4 hours to fit, but wasn't that difficult. I would suggest a second pair of hands is helpful to double check instructions and help getting the battery in and out, and posting cables through the bulkhead, the second set of hands is even more useful if they are small, so they can recover any bolts / nuts you drop in small places. The best tool I had was a £1 shop grabber to retrieve dropped nuts! My only issue was that I couldn't walk the day after - you forget how low the car is, bending over all day during the fitting really stretches the hamstrings!!

[Dazzx10r]

I'm still waiting for mine to arrive, got the front clam off ready in anticipation. Any news Tom?

[Steffe]

I am also waiting for delivery of my heater, have not heard anything from Tom since November 27. He said he would send it November 28, after that I have not got any information??? Regards Stephan

[Tony H]

He is quite slow but it will come

Stephan, I'm chasing Royal Mail about it, the tracking number from the shipment they gave me isn't recognised. I'll send you a PM

It's possible to add some type of ducting close flap? Something similar to air recirculation function to avoid the continuous breathing of toxic diesel emissions. I would buy you immediately one of your heaters if they incorporated this extra feature. For me the most important. (Spanish roads are infested with rednecks with their carcinogenic diesel cars, I hate them!!)

[Andy_VX]

I've sent you a PM Tom, really want one of these, it means more time in bed in the mornings!

that is possible. You would need to block the vent from the crash box into the heater compartment and remove the plastic covers over the vents in the footwell. You can't do this with the OEM unit as it mates directly with the vent into the crash box.
