Any suggestions of where to fit this fan ?

My first thought was on the floor on the passenger side pointing up with a remote switch ;-)

I assume you want to place it in your Speedster, but why?

Most tube-framed cars have a flat top to the tunnel.  That's what I would suggest if it works for your car.

If you really want to mount it on your dashboard (which looks metal) you could attach a flat thin magnet to the bottom of the fan and there by have the option of moving or removing it whenever you want. As for the cord ,if you decide to keep it in place of course a hole would need to be drilled in the dash, but could be hidden by the fan bottom. Magnets of different types sizes, thicknesses, are on the market almost everywhere. Home Depot for sure!!!    Stu.

Is that to maintain the wind-blown look of driving a convertible while waiting at a traffic signal?

 

Cool item, no doubt, but superfluous in a Speedster!  

Not if you put it where I suggested.  There, it would add some value.

Tom, I knew it, you are definitely a playah!!!

Ditto on that, Jim. I have never felt the need for a fan to enhance air flow in the Spyder; I get enough of that from my wife (we have to shout at each other most of the time due to the ever-present top-down noise).

Thanks for the ideas guys. I'm in the UK so do actually drive with the top up quite a lot. No leaks either from the floor or roof, it's pretty well sealed (have heated screen too - California guys wont understand the need) It's a pan based car made by Chesil. I like having some air movement when the tops up, otherwise stale air...oh, have wind up windows too. I like the idea about a magnet. The dash is glass but maybe a magnet behind it would work ?? There is a small rectangular sucker below the fan base but only for location, it wont be strong enough to hold it horizontal. I'll look into the suggestions....thanks again guys.

Mental note to self; dont let wife drive in Tom's car without long pants 

To" srblower ", didn't realize dash was fiber glass, but a back up plate on the underside of the dash, for the magnets to grab would also work!! Good luck! and Cheers!!!   Stu #1

Now here is one of those moments when in the old system you could click on his name and bring up all his pictures that we would all love to see....However
