> Explanation of each pic below:
>
> -ResistorCover: shows the mesh screen which was supposed to keep the fan
> speed resistor pack free of rubbish.  Mine was about 2" deep in mud, but
> still working !.
> -LeavesNcrap: shows just that in the bottom of the fan box.  Note that my
> old car was a RHD 75TS.  Milano's are different here.
> -Plenum1: shows the intake area with the wiper assy and plastic plenum
cover
> removed (base of windscreen).
> -Plenum2: as above
> -Plenum3: plenum intake with screen fitted and wiper refitted.  Two rivets
> and the inherent 'springiness' of the screen holds it firmly in place.
All
> edges were covered in foam tape to reduce corrosion risk and rattles.
> -Plenum4: as above
> -Screen1: Screen before fitment.
> -Screen2: as above.
>
> I suspect that my choice of screen material would restrict airflow a tad
but you
> use what you have.  Make a template out of card B4 cutting the screen.
