Need a consultation who has PTC Heat

Hello. There is no electric heater ( PTC Heat) installed in my Freelander I want to install it. We need the help of those who have this module installed from the factory. I am interested in how the power supply wires of this heater are laid. Please, if anyone has the opportunity - take a photo of how the wires are laid in the cabin and under the hood. The minus is where it is connected from the factory, as the plus one passes in the engine compartment.

Examples of photos of those places that you want to see how it is laid there from the factory.

To be honest you're better off fitting the fuel burning heater, rather than trying to make a PTC heater work.
The PTC needs lots of heavy gauge wire, and electric module upgrades which require new modules, or the existing modules reprogrammed to activate the PTC only when needed.
You'll also need a larger alternator.

Just install the FBH, which can be operated by remote, making much more useful than the pointless PTC heater. Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate. The family car.

I never even noticed when my PTC heater was on. I installed a Webasto Fuel Burner controlled by my phone. Best mod ever. Regards,

Webasto is installed on all cars supplied to Russia, and 180A generators are also installed on them.
Therefore, pre-installing PTC is not a problem. PTC is a very good addition to webasto. I have also installed a PTC for myself and it helps a lot in the off-season.
