I removed my fresh air blower 12 months ago when I had to take the gas tank out, so all the vent between the wipers does right now is let water in when it rains.
I'm toying with the idea of deleting it, has anyone done this? It shouldn't be too hard to trim out and weld in a patch. The only real downside I can think of is if some future owner wants to put the blower back in - but my car's so far from stock now I can't imagine why they'd bother. |

When I got mine, some PO had removed all the fresh air stuff an installed an SS plate underneath the opening.
I replaced all the fresh air components, so have this nice SS heavy gauge plate to offer you free for the postage. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) PS: also have wide SS plate across dash that blanks off the heater control opening Barefoot |
