Yeah the window felts that are on there allow cold air in and the
jalousies do too. What is the correct way to replace the felts?
Start in the corner or at the vent window?
Would a bilge blower be better? Cheaper? There is a West Marine
closer than a Fry's.

A bilge blower from a boat mounted in the tube will really make a
difference.
Also, the best thing to do to a bay to stay warm is to really work
on sealing it up and keeping the cold air out.

So I plan on taking the family to the Prairie Lights next weekend
(should be about 3 hrs in the Bus) then up to Grandma's on OK for X-
mas so i need a heating solution.
So far I have wrapped the main tube with solar bubble wrap twice,
tightened the clasps around the heater blower motor where they
attach to the tubes.
I was planning on rebuilding the accordion tubes but that involves
ordering parts and dealing with asbestos rings. Which is no big deal
but I have a another idea.
Why not mount 2 computer fans (12v) to either end of the tunnel to
push more air?
Has anyone tried this?
When I put my hand on the dash the air is hot enough but it just
doesn't seem to be in a hurry ya know?
