Here's an idea for summer fan use.

remove ash tray, slide fan in, plug into lighter outlet.

In winter, slide fan out, slide ash tray back in.

Wood block is 3/4" thk, 3 3/16" wide, 7" long, to fit snug without screws.

Fan is $12 12v fan from Walmart auto section.

I removed the fan clip (1 screw), screwed the base into the wood block with 3 screws

Nice work, but Busdaddy predicts bashed knuckles while shifting Wink

Looks good and useful. You'll enjoy it in the summer. But don't remove the fan guard and maybe have more than bashed knuckles.
