 Re: Spring is here but let's talk heaters! A piece of plywood at the inside of the grille works nice too. We once did a test in autumn with a thermometer in the tube at the right footwell. It showed 70 degrees. Not bad...but the grille cover is needed.

Re: Spring is here but let's talk heaters! Neoprene tubing and properly set up controls. Even when it’s been below 0 this winter it gets WAY too hot in my 2cv. Electric fans are a bodge, you have a 9 blades fan doing up to 6000rpm - what are you expecting a diddy electric blower to do?  Get it set up properly!

Re: Spring is here but let's talk heaters! @samfieldhouse
Try driving a 2cv when -20Deg C, you don't need a fan!

Re: Spring is here but let's talk heaters! I think I should probably re think cooling on the shed as its probably over cooling as it has a lot of ventilation at the front. Good for hot countries I guess ..... If I ever live in one
