Default morette inner lamp air duct

thinking of removing the inner lamps on the morettes and having some sort of air duct instead!

has anyone done this and what is best way of modifing it so it looks good instead of just blanking off with lets say mesh or something like that.

Length of flexi plastic or alloy ducting to take a cold air feed straight into the standard airbox should see a performance increase if you are using an in-engine bay filter at the moment. Just go hunting for some suitable ducting. Dunno how you would fit it to the back of the Morette. Mine's all done with gaffer tape but that's not really a good long term solution.

You should be able to buy a round ducting ram that could be fitted into the light,and then all you would need is the ducting so attach to the back of the ram,think demon tweeks do a range of rams

As above lots of companies sell the universal type round ducts, if underbonnet is nicely vented don't expect to feel any increase.
Make sure your outer lights are dip and main beam(needed for mot) as some could be single filament depending on which light unit's used.
