Does anyone still have one of these long one pice covers? If so is it possible to take a few detailed pics and a few measurments?

I have since seen this on line at IPD. I was going to ask how to remove it, but that has been asnwered below.... Pretty much you don't..

I have been known to fabricate things from time to time from like things, so perhaps making one of these is in my future.

I am totally at war with water and road salt!! This device as is from the factory and or IPD is still not exactly what I would have...

Maybe a flap device to aid in keeping out water would be something to have added...

For the life of me I have no idea why a hole on the hood allows WATER to bascily enter the entire rocker panel / fresh air system...

One great big hole on the body, and a few measley drains and rather poorly located at that with all sorts of baffels and pinch welds inside the rockers..

As I see it the Air vent cover is bassakwards, and forces water in driving, if water happens to be falling...

As you can see living in NH. USA has its share of rust related problems....

Thanks for the replies..... Mac
