PT Cruiser - Rear Passenger Window Tube????
I was in Phoenix, AZ recently and noticed that all the PT Cruisers
there have some kind of device on the rear passenger window that looks like a metal box with a clear plastic tube (about 1" diameter) sticking out of it. What is this? Thanks! |

It was 105-114f high each day. I considered that they may be vents,
although much more low-tech then the one depicted in the link. Just found it strange that I only encountered it on PT Cruisers.... Thanks for the response! |

It might have been a new design of old technology, an evaporative cooler.
The dry desert air would really make these things work well, and save a lot of $$$ in gas. I haven't seen any such thing on the PT's here in Tucson.

Just > found it strange that I only encountered it on PT Cruisers.... I find it strange also. I live in Phoenix, and have not seen any! Are you talking about the ones on the dealers lot? If so, those are cheap vents they keep on most of the vehicles in the summer, so the interiors are not cooking hot. They take them out when they sell the cars. |

A Co-Worker mentioned seeing something strange on the PT's in downtown
Phoenix. I wasn't able to correlate at that time, but that evening, there were two parked in the resort parking lot, wihch enabled me to get a closer look. I looked all over online, but didn't see anything for sale under "PT Cruiser" AND "plastic tube," or "PT Cruiser" AND "Snorkel." Possibly an anomaly, but figured I'd poke around and see if I could determine what they were.... Further description - Metal box with a 1" diameter, clear plastic tube sticking out. Hangs off the rear, passenger side window. |
