Does anyone have or know where to get Apex vents for the belt side covers ? I would like to replace the front vent to something that won't let snow through. Also has anyone made/seen a vent for the intercooler on a MCX turbo ? I think I might be getting some snow through it to my clutches. Anyone ?

Yeah, without mesh over the IC there's alot of snow pooring in under certain snow condition (as in picture).
I put mesh over both the IC and over vent's, i used Textilene Plus from outdoortextiles.

I bought some of the SLP Flow-Rite material and had the wife sew them up and covered all the vents. Used to fill the nose full of snow all the time...now dry as a bone!

Any chance you could get me some close up pics of your setup ? I was thinking on doing the same thing. I must be getting a lot of snow though to
my belt.

These vent kits (on top and side) were made by TJ's, which is now lincoln county customs in Wyoming. I replaced the screen on them last year and they use pet proof window screen. They dont let snow through. Eric
