Remember the terrible Volkswagen 411? This had a auxilliary Eberspacher
heater fitted.
Yes - a student friend from Germany had one. They weren't a standard fit, just the cold parts of Europe.
Trying to get spares for it in the UK was about as easy as you might expect.. It has a heat exchanger component they describe (in badly translated English) as a "radiator". Yes, you have to phone up the VW main dealer and order "a radiator for a Beetle" - see how far you get with that.
In the end I got the bits from Edmunds Walker. Dad had a haulage business and one of his trucks had a diesel cab heater. Deal with Eberspacher and it was all no problem.
