 Just trying to keep you gainfully employed Ken. :)
 
 My point is, the removal is not a zero benefit transaction.
 I gained space a=
 nd time, and lost weight! What's not to like?=20
 
 50lbs X 10cf X 2hrs X 17 years
 
 Space is at a premium on our vehicles. People in warm
 climates often remove the under seat heater to gain space. I would never consider
 that, but would still encourage them to modify their vehicle to suit their
 needs. For me, a Vanagon is a tool, not an investment.

Under seat heater?  What are you talking about...oh, wait, yeah now I remember having
one of those 15 years ago or so.  Never could find a use for it.  Anytime it's that cold I figure
its a sign to turn South...

Still have it on the shelf though in the unlikely event that the van goes before I do.

A/C otoh, is quite useful for those 100+ days over 100F each year.  YMMV.
