    Will This Work? Bender ThermoJet for Defrost

    It'll be a while before the weather gets colder (to test this out) here in Virginia Beach and was wondering what folks thoughts would be on this install - and if it's a good way to use this Bender unit. I ran a hose into passenger side intake of the ventilation unit (where the heater hose would normally come up through the body) and blocked the drivers side intake off. Just trying to get some warm, dry air for defrost. The Bender unit is 300 watts with a two speed fan. I haven't been able to find photos or info about how header equipped 911s might get warm air for defrost.

    Russ, Alex from the Netherlands had a thread titled "Rally Kit" in the for sale forum. He had two units , maybe he would part with the other one.


    "OK if there is that much interest in these, I will sell of one of the 2 sets I have.
    Its a used set, judging by the more classic switch with hard knob (my other set had a rubber knob and diffrent ring) and cardboard manual (also picturing the early knob) an earlier set than the ones pictured in the foam packaging. (wich is identical to my other set)
    The set has all the original uncut wiring and relais. (I will test its functioning before payment)
    $500 shipped - SOLD"
