Somewhat but not too bad. It is a lil annoying at night though cuz the light tends to reflect off the windshield. But since it's not driven too much, I just deal w/ it.


Slowstang357, very nice looking set up. Although I would not sacrifice my dash vent as you have. Gotta have that a/c blowin out all the vents to keep my *** cool.

it isnt to bad without ac lol, i havnt had it for 3 summers, just need to take a couple breaks while your driving at airconditioned places lol.
hm do you think if i just pop the buttons on that side out of the dash, and move the wires i will be able to drill it without having to take the whole thing off?

i picked a used trailer funace for 50 bucks this summer, it runs om LP but ya can get them to run on natural gas and fuel oil as well. my garage is 30x 24 with 10ft cielings and it works pretty good. takes a lil while to warm up but i only keep it at about 55 and just were a hoody when i work. and trust me when its under zero outside even 40 degrees feels damn good
