Noticed the climate HMI is still in there. Would definitely go out of my way to keep basic HVAC in the car even if it's just an on/off switch for the blower & water valve(s) with the box vents zip-tied permanently to the glass. Heater cores are a failure point, but heat to defrost the windshield is a godsend.
Yeah I’m wanting to keep the blower fan and defrost for sure. Been in cars without it and it can get interesting. Lol Glad to know the heater core can be a weak point though, I’ll have to put that into consideration for sure.

There’s tons of options out there for pads. I was going to go with Pagid first but they’re more expensive. I plan on running both on a test day to see which feel better.
