Steve Sheldon Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I have built a full working spring loaded window blind which you pull up from within the cockpit. Email if you need any more info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted November 26, 2015 Member Share Posted November 26, 2015 ... which of those who have posted really use their Seven throughout the winter?It never gets used enough regardless of season! But on motorways and similar on cold days it never gets warm enough. I'll probably just use a bit of blanking rather than a fancier blind*.Jonathan* Or, in my case, a double blind. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Area Representative Golf Juliet Tango Posted January 28, 2016 Area Representative Share Posted January 28, 2016 Driving the Crossflow over the past couple of weeks sees the temperature gauge reading 70C, without any blanking of the radiator. Too cool for my taste and insufficient heat remaining for the heater to be noticeable. So I am going to get out the gaffer tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHRIS TODD Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 My crossflow is the same. I too use gaffer tape on the grill. Easy to apply and can rip off if we get a half decent warm day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloucestershire AR Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I made one up years ago using plywood. It covered roughly the lower third of the grille and was secured using the little plastic 2 part shelf fixings you get from places like Homebase (I use the same things on my sprint timing strut).Always concerned about traffic though and potential overheating, but this was a reasonable compromise.Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
