I put one of these in a Bug I had about 15 years ago.  I cut a hole in the
firewall for the inlet side of the fan so that when the fan was in operation
the air was recirculated.  This did a wonderful job of heating the interior
even in 5F to 10F weather with a bad heater channel.  As a matter of fact, I
had to shut it off sometimes when the car got too hot inside (when the
weather was in the 20s and 30s).  The drawback is cutting the hole.
