Well it's that time of year...certainly for those of us up north.

Although the CX-3 or at least mine dosen't suffer too badly with condensation the wife's MX5 is awful in autum and winter.

I am going to try a thomar air dry dehumidifer this year and was wondering what if any products do you use to help reduce condensation and if any of them work.

I have heard cat litter is good but do you really want that in your car.(Also i don't have a cat)

Is your wifes MX-5 garaged or is it left outside under or near a tree? And is it a soft top?

No it's the folding hard top but it is left outside...there are no leaks or water coming in and the common leak behind scuttle has been fixed.

I wasn't actually thinking about water from the scuttle at the front. I have a soft top and sometimes the rear drains get blocked and if it's left out in the rain the water comes in behind the seats and you don't realise it.
I have tried using dehumidifiers in the past, but never found one that I've been happy with.
