Russ is correct as in I don't have any left - but I will make up another batch this year, however I may not have much time so it could be a one off.
Please note that it was PeteC and SteveC who developed this brilliant idea so any 'profit' goes to the site!
It is also worth mentioning that any mod carried out on your car is done at your own risk. Last year we found that the mod did not work on a couple of cars for some unknown reason (they seemed to have a slightly different thermistor which may be the reason. I can check this using your VIN no).
Your air con system should also be in good condition - as the systems are now 8-10 years old, parts could be failing anyway - fitting the mod is not a cure!
I will check out supply details and let you know cost etc. In the mean time anyone interested please PM me your email address!

how about an automatic adjuster. A thermister inside the cabin, as cabin temp drops so does the resistance value in parallel across the de-ice probe. THis would give automatic rapid cooling until cabin temp falls, trial and error to get thermistor values correct, but it should work. An extrmel simple version would be a 'stat' that switches a resistor in. you vary the stat according to the temp you would like the boost. say if it was over 35 inside then it would boost until below say 25c

Go to the previous page (no3). The first post tells you how to send a PM. Scroll down to reply 42 where Daven asks for your details and send them to him in a PM.

I have ordered enough parts to make 10 switches at £5 each - so far 3 are reserved pending confirmation.
Please PM me for details if you would like to order one
