P1000 How to cut down air flow?

[MikeyXX]

It's cold here now. A bit below freezing. The OEM heater works when I'm not traveling quickly, but as soon as I have a straight area or a gravel road the wind coming up through the gear selector and the 2,4, lock switch is crazy.

Any ideas how to cut down that wind? I've seen a bit of DYI door seals I plan to try...hopefully that keeps the snowdrifts IN the cab to a minimum.

@Montana made a fantastic cover for just that reason!

Try opening up the 6x6 access cover on your floorboard center, see if that gets some heat back in at speed. Much like the heater rig needs to be warmed up.

Low tech way may be to build a small box out of foam insulation. It would weigh almost nothing and could be held in the right place by a little Velcro.

Any link? Adding heat source is fine, but these drafts make my hands and face numb
