  • Engine and Interior Heater

    Not sure this classifies as a 'modification' or not to be honest, as you can order this here from the dealer...but as mine didn't come with it I thought I would fit it myself and save some coinage.

    I went for the 1900W slim line heater...

    So now on a cold morning - it is -18Deg C here right now!! :snowy0: - The engine coolant and interior are nice and warm before the engine is even fired up. Just leave it plugged in to the mains overnight on a timer, and it kicks in about an hour before I need to leave.

    No more cold starts!!

    That's the thing about that type if engine heater - you have to keep it on for a very long time. Unfortunately usually there is no possibility to keep it on for over 2 hours and it's pretty much useless on very cold temperatures like that.
