Finally decided to ditch the Smiths Heater and have gone for an aftermarket one. Got it from eBay as it's the exact same model that car builder solutions are selling, just 25% cheaper (even after their 10% discount and free delivery offer).
It's rated at 4.8kw (as opposed to under 2kw for the smiths) and has a three speed fan control. I'll keep the original switch, and then fit the rotary switch under the dash somewhere
May have to make up some brackets to fit it, but should be fairly straight forward fit. Hopefully will stop the Mrs complaining about the cold!

Finally got round to fitting it! Three speed fan, and as it's on top of the gearbox cover there's a fighting chance I may get some warmth from it too! ![[Linked Image]](https://tm-img.com/images/2019/08/15/MpPIKMLGFIbhfA8J6PCMqfehq1yWOeFprX-D97fpQ5HlhgB2j5HzIouX3uz6EL1L7y4qMCgAZkvzxu9CD_R8k9Ngi8jaTiuxf8S8XMmNIbHzV4iwWwqEEbJiI_ubCdsbOmzQKbAjxqLB1pOtDuAkAR5TP8Kkc0P2MeUFuw-upKcHABg0kO_glmT97M_-P0yXopo_Lxme.jpg)

Fitted a bypass valve yesterday, controlled by cable from inside. Fingers crossed that will cut the heat if we ever get a summer!
