My understanding, FWIW, and that ain't much, is that the door vents suck air
out the back window vents.  I have always thought of them as fart catchers
(can I say fart on the list?).

|John,
|
|I have never gotten in there and looked at any of this stuff - however I do
|know that at one point the vents in the bottom of the doors became
|"non-functional" - I'm fairly certain that was done when the vents were
|placed in the rear side windows. I thought that was an '86 up change but I
|could be wrong.
|
|Maybe both doors originally had that foam peice blocking it off and your
|mouse friends removed the other to use as nest material.
|
|Sorry I know that isn't much help but that's what came to mind.
