Rich Posted January 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 No it doesn't have A/C, electric windows and mirror are the only luxury! I'm going to get some, would a big bag of salt in a tub work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parthiban Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 I'd get something like this - stick it in a baking tray and leave on the seat. When it turns green it's fully saturated, stick it in the oven until it turns back orange again and repeat. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1000g-1kg-BONUS-100g-BAG-Silica-Gel-Desiccant-Self-Indicating-Loose-/111737656127?hash=item1a0415533f:g:340AAOSwu4BVm9lH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 That looks ideal with the colour change, might get that then. I do have some bags already but you can't see if they work or not. It says they need to be sealed in bags though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says they need to be sealed in bags though? I think that's referring to putting them in the open air. I'd keep them in the bag, and only pour them out when you're in the car. At this point though you're just testing a theory - if this removes the water then you know it's condensation and not soaking through the roof.

Steve-O Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 I had a couple of silica boxes i put under the seats and they worked in the fact they turned from blue to red when they had absorbed moisture. Microwave for 30 secs on low and put them back in. That said though you shouldnt really need them really. Of course there will always be a bit of condensation but nothing the blower can't over come. I've not had any major issues really and the above was only a precaution whilst it was sat in the garage and doors not opened etc etc.... On a related note i only use Autoglym hood cleaner and protector with the sponge supplied. Its a great product which cleans the hood up nicely and beads up for a long time. Probably only need to do it every 3 months or so but i do it whenever i clean the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
