Okay, been thinking of adding hood vents to my '98 XJ. It's warm under the hood in Houston, TX to say the least. The vents I see offered for XJ's just doesn't appeal to me. I was thinking hood vents off a late 60's muscle car or louvres. Has anybody done this? Does it help?

I've seen people use your common wall vent from a home improvement store. Anything will work. Just depends on your fab skills.

And I'm sure it'll help about 5-10 degrees, depending how big the vents are

honestly, anything is better than nothing.

Thanks for the input. I'll look for those Trans Am ones to start with. Too bad you can't place a sample of each on your hood before you buy!

Napier makes some that cover against rain... millions of threads on this topic though.
