The switch, if I remember correctly, is one of the levers on the right hand side of the dashboard next to the driver's door. The colour has worn off my two, so I can't tell you which one is which,

The fan switch on mine is next to the wiper switch its a 2 position hi/lo speed and the fan is located in the air intake if you look from outside its a cylinder just behind the intake grill:D

Hopefully, you will see a picture of the 'Booster Fan' that i have made and fitted to Olly and it works!
Please be aware that this is the 1st attemt (I think)that i have posted a photo!

A common fix in the UK was to fit a heater from a VW Golf I think.

Is the golf heater an electric one? It would be nice to get away from the whole water operated heater.
