Rep Power: 0 I know how it is man, its been cold as all hell out here in New Brunswick, I havent driven the car in days.
Your best bet would be to go to the local auto parts store, Canadain Tire or something and pick up a portable heater unit or something, it just plugs into the power outlet you can mount them as well and just point them to where you need them, I think thats about all you can do.
Good Luck

Rep Power: 365 If you've ever used rain-x, its just like that, but for interior glass. You can buy it at any place that sells car wax basically. Its a liquid in a little bottle and you just put it on a paper towell and rub two coats on, if there is a haze, put some water on a clean paper towel and wipe it off. It basically seals the window so no condensation can form on it. Rain-X works the same way but on the outside glass. Its worth your five dollars in my opinion. If there is dew on your windshield in the morning, you can just drive like normal and the dew will fall off after you put it on.
Tell me what you don't like about yourself....

Rep Power: 0 Rain-X is good for fog which forms on the inside of your car. I've never had frost on the inside of my car. The condensation is on the outside not inside. Anywaythe frost is on the outside so just turn on your windsheild wipers and defrost button and you'll have no worries.

Rep Power: 0 Are you leaving your recirculate on? That will cause all windows to fog on the inside. Once the engine is warm, you should turn off the recirculate and just leave the **** on defrost, or the defrost and heat on the floor. That will keep the a/c condensor running which is what takes the moisture out of the inside of the car, thereby removing the fog. Works the same in rain.
