Well, here is is, November, and I just got my car and new engine back from the shop. Now for my problem. Even though it is Chicago, the snow does not usually start flying for another month or so, and I would like to have my 914 out and about. The Triad headers obviously do not allow for any heat. I was wondering if anyone has tried/heard of/seen an electrical passanger heat system that can help. I am not looking for desert type heat or anything, just something to take the edge off.

go to your local VW shop and get a Bus-Heater.
they burn gas, but man, they heat! comes with a timer and thermostat control. i had one in my VW bug in germany, and it was the single best winter upgrade i ever made. i had to leave at around 7am every morning (car was parked outside) and i would set the timer to 6:30 and when i got to the car it was a schnuggely 80 deg and all the windows were defrosted. while driving, just turn it down. (unless you want that sauna feeling) ... if you feel comfortable routing some fuel-lines yourself, installation is fairly easy too. Andy |
