Tonight's work on install of vents. I placed them in to cut down the felt channel, chase threads, and see if it will all line up fine. Looks good so far. I will pull the vents next and install the glass and regulator before permanently installing the vents. It is going well so far.

I did.notice one potential future annoyance. I did measure and tried my best but I pushed the vent glass in a smidge too far into its triangle frame on the right side. I have a slight gap between the glass and the rubber. I may install a tiny gasket to make up this gap to help combat the dreaded road whistles! We will see later however as I'm sure the old girl will whistle regardless in other places!
