yeah theres one the the 3000 it just rattles about all day
you need some sort of powered fan
as mr pacet said vans needs insulating and the fan goes right at the back in the middle to draw air from the front
but with fords typical poor design it cant go at the back as theres a big lump of roof section there
and it cant go in the middle as theres a ridge there
bloody ford pampering to dirty builders roof racks by the looks of it
its weird sh*t up there compared to a mk6-7

half the roof insulted (b*stard ) and a bit of wire for said fan
why does it need 2 big wiring looms down each side of the roof ?
I hope none eats them
