Thanks James

I live in Vancouver Canada so our weather is the same. I have been wanting to try this for a little while. I already have a fan I bought for another car sitting around, it should pull the air through nicely. So you also removed the air pump fan ?. I hate that thing. So you didnt get any weird emmisions warning lights coming on or anything ?

How far does you temp needle go up anyways. Mine goes up to about half way on a warm day and your right the other electric kicks on anyways.

Thanks again for the info.
I have removed mine when I was changing mine, and drove the car with it off, and there actually was a power diffirence! I live in Seattle, and I've had no problem with the car overheating, just getting a little warmer than normal. Anytime the car has gotten a little warmer than normal, the aux fan for the A/C kicks in. I plan on putting an electric in soon, but for now there are no problems.


Hey

Has anyone done this and how cool does she stay on a hot summer day. I am seriously thinking about doing this, it seems easy enough.

Thanks in advance !
