Instructions on how to introduce ventilation into the seats.
In order to make the ventilation of the seats, it will be necessary to mount the fans in the pillow and back of the seats and cover them with a special cloth that will distribute the air flow throughout the entire volume of the seat.
For installation, you will need 3 computer coolers or fans with a size of 80 by 80.
A special fabric with a thickness of 10 mm called "Spacer", this type of fabric is designed for even distribution of air flow. The author recommends using one of the types of 3D Spacer or 3D Mesh material, the use of a plastic mesh designed to protect seedlings from damage is also allowed, it is much easier to find in stores such as Garden and Orchard. In order to get an analogue to the Spacer, the mesh needs to be folded into several layers.
Filling and finishing of seats: Foam rubber and synthetic winterizer should pass air well; if they are airtight, the system will not work. The seat upholstery should also conduct air through itself well if the interior of your car is made of non-perforated leather and needs to be replaced with perforated leather. The holes on the skin should be spaced about 7.6 mm apart. * 3.8 mm.,
The introduction of the system in the front seats.
First you need to disassemble the seats, then determine the place where you will install the fans on the skeleton of the seats, and we attach two fans to the back and one to the saddle with glue and small self-tapping screws, you can also attach them with plastic clamps.
Next, you need to cut holes in the foam of the seats, using a round cutter or a sharp clerical knife.
We insert the spacer into the hole cut out of the foam rubber, if you use a plastic mesh it must be cut into pieces that correspond to the size of the hole, and fold one on one until the total thickness is 15 millimeters. So that the pieces do not fall apart, insulating tape or adhesive tape is glued to the sides.
A cut piece of foam rubber is installed upstairs, in which it is first necessary to make holes with a diameter of 1 cm.
In order to improve the efficiency of the ventilation system, round openings can be cut in the sidewalls of the back, the same procedure should be done under the pillow, for unhindered access of air
Wires from the fans are connected to the buttons on the control panel (you need to connect two wires black minus, plus red, yellow remains unused).
After all operations are completed, reassemble the seats in the reverse order.
Impressions of use.
After the modernization, the seats became a little tougher, the noise from the fans can be heard only in complete silence with the engine turned off.
It is also possible to combine ventilation and seat heating using the car’s heating system; instead of fans, it is necessary to conduct a corrugation in the central tunnel from the foot deflector. This method will not only cool, but warm the seats.
