My car has had it's heater / fan removed (previous owner), it's also fitted with perspex windows and has no carpet.
In short it gets bloody hot inside and was wondering what I can do to reduce the temperatures whilst driving.
I've looked into ducting from the rear windows but not sure how effective it will be, however would prefer not to have to put the original heater matrix back in.
Thanks

don't laugh, but back when i had a stripped out mk2 escort i had a little plug in fan (looked like a mini desk fan) that despite its size worked pretty well.
like i said don't laugh.

if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

I'd rather not go drilling holes in my car - I'll probably have to refit the original fan / heater.JoshH wrote:Roof scoop? Slightly chav day to day but not if it actually serves the purpose it was built for!

Buy a slider kit for the front window(s). Mike Templar did my window kit and he sells the slider kits: http://www.templarperformance.co.uk/products.html
You can also fit these to the rear windows to allow air to flow through the cabin: http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorspor ... op-it-vent
I'd have said that just fitting the fan unit back in won't achieve much as the cabin will just get stuffy as there will be no airflow.
