Anyone using the ministry defender heat/hvac kit

Looking for feedback on the ministry defender heat/ ac combo unit. Kit is complete and includes all hoses and fittings? Are you happy with the quality and the output of the ac temperature?
I’ve been using a webasto diesel heater these past winters, but may remove that system in favor of this ministry kit. Feedback welcome….:thanks, Jim

As far as I know, the MoD kit still requires coolant temp to be hot to produce heat, incomparable to a webasto diesel heater. Im guessing they can be used in conjunction for a better solution.

The 300tdi just doesnt produce much heat in the colder months in the northeast

This is not true. The engines produce enough heat.

I watch my temp needle drop to 25% when not under load, it definitely doesn't produce enough heat when it's sub 30s. That's with a radiator muff

I will say the larger issue is sealing the cab, it was much more livable in the tdi Disco than it has been in any tdi defender I've been in
