Heater

Has anybody fitted one of these heaters?

Says it has 4.3kW of heat. That may be good enough for a four seater tintop but what will it be like in a seven? Waste of money or will it make you feel all warm and cosy?

They are a well known product from a well known supplier so no problem.
A heater in a seven is always a little controversial, you get a lot of heat from the engine for your toes especially if the exhaust is on your side.
I thought about ducting the air to the seat sides or even up the head rests like the Merc hot scarf.

With no windsceen you are wasting your time
It works well with a screen and doors otherwise it aint worth it..

We have tried it all so we know...and we live in Scotland so we know what real cold is...
