This is process one out out two…

Due to the fact we are maching a stainless steel surround for the opening and the I will adhere a fine chrome mesh inside it.
IF ALOT OF PEOPLE LIKE IT I WILL PRODUCE THE SURROUNDS AND WORK OUT A GOOD PRICE!


This is process one!

Use a door pull tool as shown its easy this way to take those clips out

Then you should see the underside of the vent... use a 10mm and push it out to direction of the window.

Next i placed the vent over the back side of the heat shield thing ( you will see two round spots on the left and right side this is where the two bolt locations are for the vent so use it as a center point like i did). Then trace it out and cut it with a razor.

interesitng.. I wonder if it'll help heat soak of the FMIC
Does the new vent guide the water to the side?? Would there be any negative effect if water get into the engine??
into? yes .. onto ... not really it should burn off
stone, I think you're forgetting about evos which have a wide open vent right over the engine
