Thread: Vent/side windows fogging up.

  1. #1

    Vent/side windows fogging up.

    I know none of you guys drive yours cars in inclement weather…but I plan to with a new me 73.5 911T.

    During the test drive it was cool (35F) and really raining.
    The heat exchangers were doing a great job on the front windshield but the vent and side windows were hopelessly fogged up.
    Couldn’t begin to use either side mirror.

    What’s the cure?
    A small fan?
    FogEx applied to the inside of the glass?

    Thanks for ideas.

    I’ll post pics of the car when I get it in hand.

    I lived in a really rainy part of the world.
    With targa, I could slightly open the vent window and the airflow would solve every fog, all over the car.
    I had to get used to a drip of water, and that was ok.

    I could never tell of the anti-fog stuff would work.

    Rules to live by:
    Fogging comes from high humidity. And when warm air touches something cold.
    Airflow is the best way to dry something out.
    Always have a towel.

    You can add a vent window to a coupe, 68 windows fit.
    (They are $)


    And if your car is already wet inside, then it is a real uphill battle.
    I had to take my floor mats out in the rainy months, they would just keep moisture in the car.
