OK I'd like to do this for less than £50 but the W bus converter alone seems to be €45 can someone explain?

So you trigger the timer from the headlight circuit which then energizes the W-bus converter to start the heater.
I was under the impression that the heater would not start above an ambient of 6ºc and would stop when the coolant got to 75ºc, so why do you need the temperature sensor? (unless starting it from the red wire input bypasses the conditions above?)
Also if wired as above surely it comes on every time you turn on the headlights?
