Dont know if you can swap one in, I guess anything is possible. As for the side blowers (the ones you can turn off) , they are a cold feed only so will only blow cold no matter where your heater control is.   :smiley:

You could try replacing the thermostat valvel?

It's only a couple of quid and after I replaced mine the car heated up a treat. Turns out the thing was stuck closed and constantly cooling the water.

Worth a try?
