Roof scoops, what are people using?

[nightSpirit]

What scoops have people fitted to their track cars and what cost? I dont want to spend mega bucks and although I used to use the wrc style cossie vent..I dont think that will suit the car. I like the scooby vents you can find on ebay but they dont come with the innards. Can I get innards seperately to suit?

Im after the same thing, there only seems to be working vents avaliable at Demon Tweeks.

The dt ones are a) too expensive, b) complete units. Will do some digging

I use a Clio 197 cup racer roof vent. Awesome bit of kit. Cost about £250 from r-sport

£250! I dont want to spend that (plus not really a fan of how they look...I know that shouldn't be a major factor)

Have you got any photos outside and in. Also how well does it work with the vents?

This is what I like the look of:

Cant find a vented internal though.

Look here for a external view of mine: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/show...ally-won-t-get-much-better-than-this-)/page95

I'll upload some more pictures so you can see the inside as well. The roof vent itself works REALLY well!! It is by far THE best modification I've made to my car. You can feel the air coming in through the vents pretty much straight away.

Here you go. Not the best of pictures, but you get the idea!

I used a step drill to create the holes and used grommets to fill them in. The idea behind this was to be able to completely close the vent off during winter/rain.

Thanks for the pics. I just dont like the look of it! Regarding drainage could you not fit an l piece to the bottom inside and run a length of washer hose to outside the car?

No worries mate! Lol, that's fair enough! It's each to their own isn't it! I've used this without the grommets in place in rain, and with the internal vents closed off it allowed a negligible amount of water in. In fact, I was behind a truck on the motorway and it was kicking up plenty of spray, but there was near enough zero entering the car, so I've never felt the need to run a drain off.
