Default Foggy Ass Windows - Any Help?

My windows seem to get foggy as hell

Anything I can do or put on them to help it (that is safe to put on tint?)

Usually I crack a window or some shit like that to help vent the car but j/w

Every Noen I've ever ridden in gets fogged up.
My friends 99 is just as bad as my SRT.
When the weather started to get cold, I unhooked the clutch
connector on the AC compressor and ran my defroster all the time.
It must be a bad design where air enters the cabin, must get alot of
water in that area.

You got that right, all these years and they never got it right . . . Foggy Neons! It seems to be a trade mark of all Neons. My daugthers 1st gen was exactly the same.

Why did you do that? To stop the shaking if you have solid mounts i am assuming.
Otherwise under WOT the ECU shuts off the compressor for the demand of power...

when your defroster is on it automaticly turns on the AC.. regardless of the temp setting..

hence the random "shacking" every 30 seconds.. (if you have mounts)

why dose it turn on the AC if your useing heat??

AC also removes moisture (AKA FOG) so leave it plugged in for sure...

I use that FogX stuff too, it works pretty good. Takes a while to apply well.

i tried using the fog x stuff but it crapped up my windows... left a oily residue, and actually made night time visibility worse than regular foggyness...

i dont like the stuff... my 2 cents...

ya it also goes away after you clean it with windex but the resedue stays causeing glaring at night.. i wouldent recomend it.. the only thing i can recomend is shut the fan off set the switch so its sucking air in from outside and put it on heat.. when the car is driving it will pull air in and keep the windsheild regulated so it wont fog. the other problem is you could have your heat on researqulate which causes fogging.. (this is stated int he owners manual)

I use windex and newspaper to clean my windows. I use the news paper instead of paper towels. Trust me it works, it gets rid of it for about 2-3 months then you have to do it again

Yeah I have had that happen before. You really need to clean the windshield well before applying the fogx. And you have to buff it like crazy once its on there. It takes a long time, but it works well. Tim's method is old school but def. works like a charm too. A lot quicker as well.
