Pete,
why do you think they (Naca vents) are useless?
I have been happy with them:
- it was easy and straightforward to install them
- they are light weight
- they produce fresh air to the cockpit very well when open and they
won=C2=B4t when closed and are fully adjustable
- easy to operate
- they are looking nice
One limitation: we call that plastic screw =9Cfucken Russian
vertical spiral=9D. The end stops are weak and will broken easily.
When it is fully open, do not try to open it more and vice versa!
It is easy to forget to what direction you should turn the knob
=93 so I have made an arrow sign to show how to open and close it.
Terveisin,

Hi Steve,
Europa certainly did supply the metal ends in days of old. I got mine
---From them and they have never given any trouble since (12 yrs). I only
wish the company would stop supplying duff bits when they must surely be
aware of so many complaints. Those useless NACA side vents are another
expensive and useless item that I believe still come with the new kits.

Europa Company supply these and whilst acknowledging the risk of them
being more secure at least you do not worry about the doors detaching on
the ground in strong winds.

Gidday,
I have had my door strut hydraulic struts on and off so many times,
and co-incidentally arm really glad the end caps, the ball joint cups
are plastic. So, when the time comes I reckon it might be worthwhile
replacing them, or having spares. I have seen photos on EuropaOwners of
Dan Bish's album of a metal cup with a locking cir-clip pin rather than
the plastic ones. He is unsure where he got them from, maybe Europa, and
so I am wondering if anyone knows where these can be sourced please??
