Hold your breath!

Seriously though, think how small the Jimny is inside and how much glass it has. It stands to reason it will steam up. Lack of use doesn't help as said above.

1. Wind deflectors and a small gap in the windows helps!
2. Plastic container with silica gel crystals (?) (moisture collector refill bag) inside car under front seats. I used a plastic container with a tight lid that i drilled 12mm holes in the top. cannot spill unless flipped upside down.
3. Newspapers under the floor mats that you regularly swap for dry ones
4. if possible put a fan oven inside the car from time to time during winter. lift mats so it gets dry underneath as well.
(beware the fire hazards)

I would like suggestions of how to get more airflow on the windsheild with the defroster fan. I think it is way too weak.

Buy a supplementary 12v window demister

Do it right - use Hammerite

If you have air conditioning that dries the windows very quickly, mine gets as much use in winter for demist as ever it does in summer for the heat.
