[FC] Heater Coil

You're fogging the windshield because water's getting into the ductwork 
somewhere.  Usually it's back around the engine.  Self-stick insulating 
foam and silicone sealer are your friends here.

There are also joints to seal at a number of places in the system after the 
heater box, as well as the distinct possibility of a hose with a split in it.

Water splashed in any of these will get you a foggy windshield.  Normally, 
though, it's water splashed in around the exhaust manifolds or at the lower 
shroud-head joint that is the culprit.

Of course, a gas heater will completely cure this one as well...
