I just replaced my side vents with mesh last weekend.
Getting to the intakes is tight but not too hard of a job.
NSXnBRLA's instructions are right on.
Side scoop vent is held in place by 4 screws.
- If you look at the vent from inside the wheel well
- on the side closest the sheet metal, 2 small
regular head screws will be facing you.
- carefully remove screws
*** DO NOT DROP SCREWS INSIDE SCOOP AREA ****
(you'll find out why if you do)
- The next 2 screws are phillips head and are a pain to get to.
A small mirror will help locate them. 90 degree screwdriver
or similar tool will be necessary to remove those screws.
that's it. Vent should fall out.
