Before
I added this extension, I was freezing my butt off in the car, even
when it was only 40 degrees and the heater was cranked to full blast.
I ran this piece of dryer pipe to a swivel 90 degree piece of duct work.
It is great because now I can point the heat in any direction that I
want to. It is even better because I atttched it to a bolt that
I welded to the bottom of the ashtray, so you can slide it closer and
away from you by pulling the ashtray in our out.
This is the greatest thing that I have done to my car in a long time.
No longer am I freezing, but instead can comfortably take my coat off.
It is so warm now that I can actually turn the heater down. It
all easily unbolts for summer time.
What a difference it makes to direct the heat onto you instead of onto
the cold floor, which just cools the air back to freezing cold.
Cold air on the outside is rushing by the floor so fast that it immediately
and continuously cools the air that blows over it on the inside, making
the heater pretty much worthless. No wonder it never felt any
wamer in there. I just have to thank Steve and Dad for doing this
to their Ghia, or I would probably never have tried it. Every
Thing owner needs this. It cost about 5 bucks and takes about
30 minutes to build. |
