Yes here we go again, but not in a hurry!
I'm trying to organize some heated rear hatches. The hatches would be toughened glass, with a screen printed element and hopefully the edge of the screen to be also screen printed, so as to hide the sealing rubber.
The situation at the moment is that one of my rear hatches has been sent to Spain ( never to return) to be assessed and costed. I'm expecting news in about a fortnight.
But there is more, I'm also looking at opening rear side windows for the Mks 1,2 &3 Coupe's. This is of course is in preparation for global warming, when it is so dammed hot in the coupes, that you need all of the windows open, that you can, especially in the dark coloured cars!
The idea is to liberate hinges and catches from a modern car (and I'm open to suggestions) and fit them to a Midas. It has also been suggested, that we could have these windows open electrically with little motors that are available in other cars ( BMW & Seat). How flash is that!
Mike Perkins also has a very good idea on this front, in that he fits small computer fans at various locations in his car and leaves them running all of the time as they use very little current! Thus keeping the car well ventilated and free from humidity and smells. Good for our members who indulge in a bit of "dogging".
This of course is all Rich's fault, as he is upping the quality stakes on the Midas's with stainless steel bushes in his handbrake linkages!
Lets have some ideas?
