So after fixing my electrical problem with my fuel pump, i hooked it all up and got Coop running.
It does actually heat up quite nicely and the fan kicks out the air pretty hard, especially into the footwells, and having my little potentiometer means i now have better variable speed. I think i need to adjust the windscreen vents to seal them better, but it does a really good job.
On thing i am thinking is that i need to source some brackets to keep the unit flat, with the angle it is at, i don't think the water is flowing into the matrix as effectively as it could (although i could have had an air lock), but still heated up easily as fast as the old unit and certainly pushed more air through.
I made the mistake of touching the metal part where the water feeds in and promptly burnt my fingers!
All in all i'm pretty happy with it. Save for a few adjustments and putting all my switches back on, i'm ready for winter.
I'll post some pictures of it in place once ive tucked all the wires away and put the panel back.
At some point i'll try and add a bit of a 'How to fit one of these' instructional so others who want to do it can do so without the trial and error i had to go through.
