As with any reproduction part, the keenest eye might spot minor variations from the original.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAre these functional or cosmetic?\u003c\/strong\u003e Functional - unlike the factory vents (which look functional but are actually sealed), these genuinely let air into the engine bay and help vent heat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow does it mount?\u003c\/strong\u003e Mounting is the same way as the OEM vents - retain the existing metal clips from your original vents and transfer them onto the new vent tabs.
