engine lid vent covers

Post by ancient mariner »

following on from the thread i have on the mk2 modification section,i have managed to get what i think is an excellent price for fellow members,for these covers.
they are made of brushed stainless steel,don't know the gauge but it is quite thick and not flexible :roll:
please note you will have to source your own trim if required.
i will not require payment untill they are ready for posting,but would appreciate it if only genuine orders are placed.
cost is £30 plus p+p to be confirmed.

hi, my car is parked outside all the time.after fitting twin spal fans, i was getting a lot more water,snow and ice entering the engine bay,this is also the case when washing it.also noticed a lot of people getting starting and bad running problems,due to those reasons.
thought of buying a full cover,but to much hassle and time to put on and take off :roll:
so came up with this idea.takes seconds to put them on and remove,
they don't look out of place (imo) and they work.
more benefit to me as i am trying to detail the engine bay.
hope this answers your question.paul.

Thanks for the explanations Paul. I was wondering what was the interest of those plates.
I don't have any problem with water entering in my engine lid, but I don't have spal fans (yet ;-))
Will those plates move if you wash the car hard (with a "Karsher") ?
