And it helps if you have a cat!

You could go more retro using those 80s fluorescent socks that would look great on the dash idea

I did something very similar to this many years ago. I had a mk4 Fiesta with an extremely ill fitting hatch. In winter it took longer to scrape the ice off the inside of the glass than the outside. A tub full of those little silica gel sachets you get in shoe boxes placed in the boot had it bone dry in a couple of days.

On the web page you want to link, highlight and Copy the bit in the address bar. Then in this FCCUK reply box, paste it in after erasing the http bit. After that it'll ask you what to call it.

I've had a couple of moisture bags for some years now, still going strong. Rejuvenate by placing on house radiator overnight when needed. Does the job in my diesel hack this time of year.

For the Coop I purchased a dehumidifier & refills from Aldi on the recommendation from Stan, this really works well as there's more moisture in the Coop. Works a treat.


I'm an old git & happy with it,most of the time
