Still debating on the cost effectivness of these webasto/espar heater units. I would love to find a used unit but that is extremely unlikely in this country. Anyway, if I were to use the existing rear heater in my 80 can anyone think of a way to use the existing in and out coolant lines and run them into a gas or propane powered burner to heat the coolant and thus heat the interior by hardwiring the heater fan? Is there a 12 volt low amperage pump to circulate the coolant that might be suitable at extremely low temperatures? How about a way to remotely ignite and turn on/off the burner unit? I know that these units are the perfect solution but for the same cost I could get a small generator and run that with a portable space heater. Ideas....
