Yeah, that's what I had. Timer control unit in bottom lip of dash to the lefts of steering wheel has clock, timer exec. Could set to come on in thee morning, heat up coolant, turn on stock heater fan and blow the now heated system as if it was heated by engine running.

I pulled mine due to having a hard time finding spare seal. A fussy little lip seal thingy. It would have been neat to have working, bite I don't need thee preheat on Vancouver island and the system draws too much current to be useful as camping heat.

I dint know of any stock hot air blowing webasto installed in Canadian markets vans. I mean form 86 on.

Alistair.
