The Webasto runs on diesel and an aux battery, and warms the water in the engine and circulate it.
It ends up in the cars heater and the fan inside starts. Great system! But a bit overkill with a such a webasto in the Jimny
Clothing is of course an alternative and a good one. But i would like it more cosy and comfy
I can just start the engine when i am awake i guess.
Lambert: I have always looked at the 12v ceramic heaters as more or less a hoax. They actually heat?
Scimike: Does it have to be placed inside the cabin or can it be placed under the car and run the heat tubes thru the floor?

That is how my Webasto works in the VW T5. It is even connected to the CanBus.Busta wrote: I wonder if there is a way you can use the existing cabin fan and heater matrix, and add an auxillary water heater in the engine bay? That way you remove the issues with condensation, and save a lot of space. You would however need some kind of water heater, a small pump and an auxillary battery to run it.
