Guys,

 � I assume you are referring to the rear-most side window vents along
the rear edge eg�  air EXIT vents ?

I've got my windows out for a paint job and have not gotten to these
vents but can see that the foam inside has dried up and is crumbling.

Or are you referring to the airbox up front under the dash ?
