<P>In the directions supplied he has it mounted in the bench seat box on a Westy.&nbsp;You have to use a holesaw and cut I thinks a 3 1/2 inch hole to put in the vent fascia.&nbsp;However I have a Syncro GL with a Z-bed conversion so it does not fit anywhere in that area. I have put it behind the front passenger seat. It is a self contained unit so I can leave it like that, but I still may build a little box to go over it soon. As I said though in a Westy it would be a clean install, and not visible. But I don't care....I want heat!</P>

<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;Hi everyone. Just wanted to put up a small report on my new propex
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;1800 heater. I bought it from Karl at Westy Ventures and it was
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;delivered very fast and in perfect shape (well packed). I started
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;the
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;install on Sunday morning and it took most of the day for me, but
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;was
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;very straight forward. I did run into 1 problem with the wireing
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;and
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;Karl had provided both a shop phone# and a Cell#. I called his cell
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;and he was right there for me (on a Sunday). He is very
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;knowledgable
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;about these and he knew the answer right away. So as of right now
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;it
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;is running great in the driveway. This weekend I head out to Ouray
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;Colorado. Evening lows will be in the teens, so I will let you all
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;know how it works.
