Ol Boys Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 after nearly completing the TR4th bridge i'm thinking i may address the fan situation as it seems very feeble and we like to use it all year round ,although with the bonnet scoop open there is no issue with misting up at all when driving but to help defrost in the beginning would help, any advice or suggestions greatly appreciated, just renewed all coils,shocks and poly bushed it, what a transformation, if anyone needs any old squeaks rattles knocks or bangs i've got them in a bag somewhere, that with an anti gearstick rattle spring i reckon i could hear the radio now if i put it back in, regards, ol boys Quote Link to post Share on other sites
4Mal Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 I have the heated windscreen. A quick go now and again sorts misting out a treat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stuart Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Who supplies the heated screen? Cost? TR Enterprises do the screens http://www.triumphspecialtuning.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=48&product_id=125 I have never had any problem with the standard heater, properly rebuilt with the matrix flushed and new foam seals makes a world of difference. You could fit a squirrel cage fan that helps which is a cheap upgrade. Stuart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
4Mal Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Mine was via TR Enterprises as part of the build. It was recommended by Steve following his rally experiences and I have to say it’s brilliant. I only ever have it on for les than a minute and it does the job. In Ireland this year, when it was a tad wet at times, it kept the screen clear as a TR screen would ever be. I have a warning light to show it’s on, which is a good idea. Although if you do leave it on, the outside world can do a bit of a “shimmy” I think it used to be available via Moss Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlueTR3A-5EKT Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Did the heated screen job on a Cooper S a while back and fitted something like this. http://www.polevolt.co.uk/acatalog/info_74205.html What do Caterham supply on their heated screen option cars?

PYU940F Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 That TR enterprise screen is IMO good value, probably cheaper and less agro than trying to upgrade the heater. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
