So as many of you know, its winter, and its cold. Well i have no HVAC which means no heat and no defrost. my "defrost" is actually just cold air blowing on the windshield. It works but it makes everything oh so cold. So i was sick of it, and did something about it.


Tools Needed:
Fuse puller if you have weak baby fingers, or giant man hands that can't grab.
20amp mini fuse
Rally Universal Heater/Defroster from Wal-Mart




Step 1
Acquire tools, open hood.

Step 2
Remove fuse box cover, locate Cigarette Lighter fuse. it is the 15amp fuse next to the far left bolt.




Step 3
Remove 15amp and replace with 20amp fuse.



Step 4
Install and mount heater wherever you'd like.






And you now have a heater/defroster on your non-hvac car. It comes with a velcro mount so you can put it anywhere. the main body also detaches from the mount to be used to melt ice and frost on the outside of the windshield. Just as a precaution, do not leave the unit plugged in while you are not in the car. And obviously with a 20amp draw do not use the heater while the car is not on.

 

Approved lmao

 

don't hate.



...Because Winter.

 

Those things suck bro your gonna need 3 of them lol. And yes i have 3 of them

 

you musta got a shitty one. cause mine even sitting on the dash blows quite forcefully. keeps the cherry glowing red

 

ehh more is better lol

 

What is winter? I was in shorts today

 

ya i got one to use for my winter beater dodge neon rear window bc my defrost brok and that rally thing wouldnt defrost a dime size area. it sucked soo bad so I returned it

 

This X2! Lol i was putting up Xmas lights in shorts, Then the wind set in 40-60 mph winds with up to 80-100 gusts, been crazy windy in cali!

 

hahaha nice! I dont have a heater either, but then again i hardly ever use it lol

 

why no heater?

 

if your referring to me i disconnected my heater lines so i could run my water lines for my turbo lol. i didnt have to do it that way and it could be solved with a couple of Ts lol. I was just in a rush and didnt really fix it since then. who needs a heater on 90 degree weather all year long? haha there is no winter in this place

 

dayum engineered for an ion hahahha

 

lmao^^

 

i have no heat and winter is coming, review say these things are junk and wouldn't keep a mouse warm. Thinking about a space heater or a blanket at this point

 

On RV forums I read great things about the cheap 12v heated throw blankets available at truck stops and at Camping World. It will keep the kids or girlfriend warm and you can allays sit on it while you drive.

 

600 later they ripped apart the dash and i have heat, come summer they gotta dig again but there gonna work with me. I have a heated blanket for the couch in my room, uses a lot of power though.

Doesn't fix the defrost

 

Balt parked for the winter . Use one of my backups.
