Last week I found the heater fan out of a Citroen xsara and sized it up to an old heater box so I started cuting and It fited perfectly it blows a lot more air than the standard fan I haven't fingered out how to get the speed working so if any 1 has any idays of how to get different speeds let me no

The speed control is normally done through a bank of resisters selected from a 4 position switch .Often the resistors are located in the heater were the air flow is used to cool them.
