I bought some warm air guide tins since my right side is missing and the left has a broken tab. I can see where they mount to the case, but what do the other tabs mount to? There isnt anything to attach to around there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
Maybe I am missing something else? Anyone have a picture they can shoot me? Also, will mounting these make my car run a bit cooler? They are used to funnel warm air away from the engine, right? THanks all |

they protect the underside of the case where the pushrod tubes are exposed to the elements and road debris without them. I have seen these with notable damage from debris. I would fabricate a "clamp" on the exhaust tubes to attach them to.

Right on. I think i can just get some coat hangerish type wire to hold them up there.
