Today checked and replaced the granules in my condensation trap.
I use a similar condensation trap to the one in the link above.
I place it in a potting tray without drainage holes because the water container part of the trap can fill very quickly and possibly overflow if a very damp period is experienced.
The water in the water container of the trap is acid so do not allow to come in contact with the bodywork.
I have always kept a condensation trap inside my Minor over many years and found it of great benefit so can highly recommend having one or more inside the car.
