Ive read somewhere that In the event of an engine fire
the plastic lids have a tendancy to instantly melt and
collapse into the engine bay. Has anyone out there
unfortunately had this happen to thier van?
And, in the event of an engine fire, can anyone guess
how long does it takes before the fire burns through
the lid and engulfs the interior? Ive seen a few pics
of burned vanagons but its always a mystery what
happened. Does the metal lid allow more time to remove
and spray engine down with fire repellant? Could metal
lids ad more danger to the person removing the lid in
order to spray engine down with fire repellant?

Thanks,
