Installed hardware cloth over the open air intake. Assembly grease was required to save my sanity trying to install sheet metal screws at that angle. Note: install it over the inner openings. If it’s installed over the outer openings you have wasted your time. Finally, I sealed the edges...

A bunch of reading and I found the cabin air intake. Removal of plastic cowling and wiper arms was required (shut up…..). Even made a wiper arm puller from a sliding barn door hanger. Hind sight is 20/20. If my old eyes had looked a bit closer I would have realized that the cowling was split...

First priority is locating points of ingress. Rear cabin vents and cold cabin air intake are all I can find. Rear vents first. Although there was no sign of rodent activity behind the liner, being able to stick a finger through and touch the bed was enough incentive for me to seal them. I...

White out and visible on mine. Can’t speak for others.

You may have to adjust the crash bars slightly….

Did you hear about the dyslexic agnostic insomniac who laid awake all night wondering if there really is a dog?

Randy Rhodes! :rockon:

Dang. Thought this was about garage audio!! ;)

Just a piece from my tool crib. Probably turned a few model T bolts?

Follow up: I have installed hardware cloth over the engine air intake. Not too pretty but seems to be effective. I have looked for the cabin air intake but no joy. The logistics of sealing the intake from inside the cabin are daunting to say the least. Question: Is there a single point intake...
