JLT Fresh Air Kit on the Way: Any tips on install?
Ok, So I just saw on the UPS Site that my JLT Fresh Air Kit and Clear bezels will be here on Monday. (WOW WTG JLT WITH THE QUICK SHIPPING) AND THANKS TO JOE G FOR THE GREAT DEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 anyways...anyone who has done this, any tips on the installation. I have an extra lower grille when I had a new one put in after some bodywork etc..anyone have any tips on the installation of the grille. I know most just drill from the backside...but how how hard is it to remove the grill and replace..since I have one extra one out. I know it was pretty easy to remove the grill on my 05 GT...but is it impossible to do on the GT500..anyone with experience or advice please chime in....on another note, I have the FRPP CAI so I know that some mods will have to be done to the heat shield to accommodate...again, anyone with experience here...please chime in..... Finnally, I live in Fla...so rain is prevalant...but how do the foam plugs work as far as preventing water from getting in there... In case you cant tell I am pretty excited....between getting this and waiting on all my parts to come in for my Clutch/Trans TSB It will feel like a new car...... all advice welcomed....

Re: JLT Fresh Air Kit on the Way: Any tips on install?
the foam plugs for the bezels are a nice tight fit, you should get them already in the bezels. So your using the FRPP heat shield with the JLT intake..hmmm..you may have to modify the shield by cutting a downward loop..depends on clearance..something you'll have to gage while test fitting. the JLT going on is pretty straight forward. When positioning the tube between the strut bar and coil cover..just hold it giving your self enough clearance from both, then tighten the TB clamp. Normally you want the TB rubber hose to sit at an angle (top slightly forward) while the bottom is back. But i beleive Jay modified the cf tube to prevent having to do this anymore. the new tube should have an angled end (tb side) so the hose goes straight on the tb.
what was the other questions....oh...the grill is a PITA, but for some, have had luck. the holding tabs where a bit of a challenge. didnt want to break them. i did mine installed.

Chef, most holesaw arbor's have a 1/2" shank so you will need a right angle drill with a 1/2" chuck (& a 6" extention). ( It's been a long time but I believe you will need a 2-1/4" hole saw maybe MC can confirm this)

Re: JLT Fresh Air Kit on the Way: Any tips on install?
Chef..i got what you need..want me to ship it to you...but yes..2-1/4 hole saw, and pretty much any right angle adapter...
and yes...the bottom will start to cut and pretrude first..but keep it straight until you are completely thru.

Re: JLT Fresh Air Kit on the Way: Any tips on install?
So I have to ask, is all this work, plus then worrying about plugs for rain, worth a 1-2 Degree drop in temp? I have the FRPP CAI, and just wonder, other than the looks, will this REALLY make a difference? Or is this more of a cosmetic mod?
