Well, to keep salt dry and flowing in a salt cellar, you put some rice in with it... A bowl of Uncle Ben's would probably be worth a try - but it'll still be dealing with the symptoms, not the cause. The cause is that a single skin of uninsulated metal will always get covered in condensation on a cold night. Basic thermodynamics (?). ah, rice you say - i will try it out and report back

Thermodynamics is the study of the conversion of energy into work and heat. [wiki] so stop working so hard inside the car [late night sex especially], so no heat and sweat, no condensation, simples [said in accent of a mearcat] i don't reckon i could on those freezing vinyl seats at the moment....

Re: Condensation in car Would one of these devices help, but fitted internally rather than externally? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQbHnLSasfQ
