After last weekend super hot weather the kids got a bit hot and sticky in the back of the van, is there any sort of after market air con that will ift the van, Ive treid the 12v fans before but they seem to just move the warm air around, any ideas as a boil in the bag baby does not make a good passenger.
Cheers folks

Thanks for that link Slobbo, looks a wee bit out of my price range really but worth keeping in mind for the lotto win

I've done a bit of googling and it looks like the kids will have to travel in there undies on hot days uless anyone eles has another ideas or solutions.

Cheers, folks

Ice, oven tin, colander or pasta drainer, fan. cardboard box.

And some sticky back plastic eh?
Then what to do with it all, use the fan to blow air through the ice in the colander on top of the oven tin to catch the water from the melted ice but whats the cardboard for ? Has got the old grey matter ticking though, cheers Kev

With your brains and opposable thumbs you are a higher being

take the bottom from the box and use it to focus the cold air

Aha I see, cheers I'll give it ago next summer as we've had this years now
Thanks Kev
