Can't understand the benefits of a vent that only works when you are driving in reverse.

I did look at one similar to that from ht autos but decided to go with this one from the hammer man, bit more of an aggressive look but I do like that one aswell.

It is designed to extract hot air from the engine bay. Primarily used with a FMIC.

If you put it on backwards can you drive forwards with it?.

I achieved lower engine bay temps after fitting one.

I like them on classics but don't think they suit a blob.
