Solar Fan - help!

I need help guys. Since my heater delete last summer I’m noticing condensation on the inside of my windshield this winter. This is in my Monte Carlo, not the Focid. I want to set up a solar panel in the windshield and run a fan or 2 to circulate air inside the car, blowing over a tub of damp-rid to remove moisture. I see people using old computer fans with a panel but they are usually lacking info on the panel. I’m totally green to the solar world so please use small words lol. I don’t want to mess with batteries, just “sun out, fan running” type simple setup.

Do I math out the fan needs then source a panel? Or will any panel work with any fan?

Links to sites and videos appreciated...

Anyone got old computer fans or small solar panels they want to sell?

I saw a panel with suction cups on amazon that would work physically but not sure delivers what I would need.

Thanks,
