South America import heater

[Bioray1974]

Looking at acquiring an imported BJ. Is there a heater/defrost kit that can be installed. Anyhow have experience with this?
I can handle the lack of A/C. But have to have heat!

I think you could find a used stock heater. I removed the stock heater in mine and installed one of these. I haven't run it yet, so I have no idea if its enough heat.

What year BJ4X? Seen some later 40 series that while they didn't have a heater the firewall had a blank plate bolted in place of the factory blower. What does you windshield look like? Does it have defrost vents? If your going to need to defrost the windshield the factory blower with a outside air is nice to have.

I have a spare 78' heater in Huntsville if it will work for you.
