Hi, I’ve got a heated screen in my mk2 20vt conversion. You’ll need 2 live feeds direct from the battery, 2 30amp relays (preferably fused) and some sort of button/switch to activate it. It’s pretty straight forward to wire up.

I wouldn’t recommend running both sides through one relay as they draw quite a lot of current.

PM me if you get stuck.

Cheers,
Kav

everything turns ok…i just needed to man up a bit.

Does anyone know the torque wrench setting for the big nut that holds the prop shaft flange to the transfer box?

[Kav1187]

It seemed ok before I attached the transfer box fully. When there was a 1cm gap, it was all spinning together then when I brought it together it got stiff…might well be that it’s in gear, I’ll have to check when I go to the garage later on.

I’ll also attach the driver side driveshaft and give that a go. I’m hoping it’s just in gear []

[Kav1187]

Sure did

Is it normal for it to be difficult to turn the driveshaft once the transfer box is in place? it was all spinning ok up until I connected it fully…now it’s really stiff when I try to turn the passenger side driveshaft [?]

Thanks guys…I’ve fitted the new transfer box…going to clean up the subframe and power steering rack then it’ll be ready to go back in….really hope the new engine works! []

ld50, thanks for your advice…I thought it best to get a replacement one and fit it with the engine/gearbox out of the car….I reckon it’ll be easier to line it all up with the prop shaft than trying to get the transfer box to line up with the engine/gearbox.

Thanks Chris, I look forward to receiving it
