Title: Cowl Vent Install
Post by: smitty on September 06, 2014, 02:17:43 PM

Just wondering if anyone knows what kind of Bolt/screw/rivet holds the cowl vent insert on the hinge brackets?
There is two holes that are not threaded so would assume a bolt but don't have any here that fit?

Amy advice much appreciated!

Thanks
Mark

Thanks Stewy, very helpful!

It looks to me like my top piece where it is hinged is a rivet of some sort. Is the whole vent meant to hinge off the third top screw/bolt? (third bit at the top in your picture).

Thanks again.
Mark

Hi Mark,
Top hinge is a rivet but should still be on the body.
