Welcome.
Pearl white does look pretty amazing on NA's!
There were no demisters till 93, so you'll never get that working haha.

Actually it should be fairly easy to wire up a circuit to power the demister, assuming the wiring is still attached to the hard-top.
You'll just need to find somewhere to mount a switch to operate it. :wink:

Ofcourse, but it's not a case of just plugging it in or changing the fuse to get it working.
I wired my na6 to have a functioning demister, I used the oem loom from a wreck though.

I had a 91 with a factory hardtop.

The hardtop had a demister.

The wiring for that went from the right side of the dashboard near the light dimmer where the demister 's on/off switch was to a connector on the rear parcel shelf.

You should be able to hijack that to use for the softop demister.

Welcome from another newbie.
I just bought an NA6 brittish racing green limited three weeks ago, in the process of getting it roadworthy, nearly done.
Pretty sure mine has a demister in the glass soft top window.

Bob do you go to the garage cafe each Thursday? How was the motorkhana last night??????

In real life a mitress normally equals divorce/seperation/no partner. My partner, with detestation in her voice, calls mine 'that car' ...

Irrespective enjoy it! I will cost more than any mistress and it is impossible to have babies with 'her'.
