Heater valve unboxing video

Okay, so it's not your normal unboxing video of some expensive electronic consumer good - rather it's me unboxing the new heater valve assembly for the Fiesta which - if you've seen my other videos - has a duff heater. Heater not working at all due to failed unit caused by coolant ingress into motor.
Anyway, I ordered a new heater valve from an Ebay (U.K) seller called 'directsupplies1' after checking out the normal car parts outlets - all of which wanted stupid money for what is essentially a tap with a solenoid stuck on it.
Anyway I will post the video showing how it's fitted as soon as I can.

Good point. The unit would be perfect as it already distributes hot antifreeze/coolant so solar collector panel shouldn't be much of a problem.

@TK42138 perfect for a 12v solar panel

Funny you say that but I might reuse the old part in my planned garden irrigation pumping set up.
