Thats my 1.4 petrol, the one im speaking of is fitted in my 2002 1.4 TDI and its no fan, ive had it all apart to fix the breakages and bodges its just next to the fan housing as such inbetween that and the cabin filter, hears a pic of the outside and you can see the wiring going into the top of it. the alloy heating fins are about 5 inches long and 3 inches square in shape at its base and go from the top of the casing down to near the bottom to heat the air as it passes through.

As to been retrofitted i doubt it but can not say 100% for sure.
Isn't that the speed control for the fan motor? It gets hot so the heat sink is in the airflow to cool it down.
