[QUOTE="crisco0216, post: 62095, member: 8473"] I'm new here today, so bare with the green horn. I would like to see the PICs you spoke of, but don't know how to find them. I am in Indiana and snow has been a flying. I have a plow truck and using it at every possible chance, but the guy I plow for can put my skidsteer to work with a scraper box. I have 3 problems: 1) cab's not enclosed; 2) cab's not heated; and 3) not sure where to plumb heater core. I've been looking into the options since just after Christmas and am still on the fence on the enclosure model I want. Long term I am wanting a solid front door with a wiper motor for when the snow is REALLY BLOWING as well as a good heater, possibly with directable ducts (ducting) for good defrosting. I think the vinyl/poly enclosures would be a quick fix in the short term, but I think the solid would be a more acceptable long term solution. After just having started looking into the heater options, I found out we have a place here in town that stocks 3 kinds on heater cores.
