A couple of the Essex club members expressed interest in the “aerorace-style” radiator ducting for cars with the uprated Polo/Coolex rad (may fit original Polo rad, but would need checking)…. Picture is a gallery image just to give you an idea. I’ve had quotes back to make a batch up by local engineering firm, and was just gauging numbers if I was to progress. Prices are looking around £32 for the four pieces made out of 2mm aluminium (as I asked for small batch of 10 units). If easier, I could bundle together a kit with the bolts and rivets needed as well, but this would probably add a couple of extra quid. So far I’ve had 3 confirmed requests, but looking to see if there’s anyone else that would like one as I have to make it to 10 items to be viable (or the price increases by £10 a set). I’m not doing this as a business venture, just looking for cost recovery! Lead time would be about 2-3 weeks. Opening out to the club to try and boost numbers. Ideally collection from Chelmsford, Essex, but could post if you’re happy to pay for it!

Hi all, I've searched the forums to no avail, trying to add a thermostatic switch to my Seight as it just has a manual one at the moment. I have the following : http://www.carbuildersolutions.com/uk/adjustable-fan-controller-thermostat and I'm not sure which wire goes where, from the fan I have a red & a black wire, finding a suitable connection to disconnect I've found that with the switch on they are both live, I assume there is a relay involved somewhere and I've tested the circuit before this i.e. on the fan side in the engine bay. I could do this by trial & error but if anyone has a more scientific method I'd be grateful for a pointer. By the way, I can highly recommend "car builder solutions" as a web site, they appear to have anything you could possibly want. Cheers Dave
