In the process I've invented cuss words that even a sailor at sea would be ashamed of saying if there were a shipmate standing near. The problem is the duct that goes between the Vans inlet that ducts the air to the interior panel vent cover. First, it doesn't sit flat against the backside of the skin because of the rivets and doubler holding Vans vent. So every attempt to seat it is different from the previous attempt. And second, the duct repeatedly falls off the backside of the interior panel every time I try to work it into position. I have to be the problem because I haven't heard any complaints from other folks getting these things to fit. I've notched the duct as described in the installation documents, so I don't believe that is the problem. Has anyone found a technique, tip, or even modification to make this as simple as it appears it should be? Thanks, Phil ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 07:14:51 AM PST US From: John Trollinger Subject: Re: RV10-List: Aerosport Side Vents - Rear Interior Panel I had the same issues you did.. I had to cut down the duct to get it to fit at all.. I do not remember if I just threw away the vents or finally got it to work..
