INSTALLING NAKATANENGA REAR WINDOW AIR VENTS

[TheDocAUS]

INSTALL STEPS
Steps to install the NAKATANENGA window vents. I could not find any instructions - at least so far:

1. The vents fit the Grenadier’s rear doors.
2. There is a driver and passenger side vent. You must match each vent to the correct side of the car;
3. The rounded edge of the vent points towards the front of the car, with the fine insect mesh facing the inside;
4. Lower the window all the way down. It is better to lower the window all the way to give you more working room;
5. Place the vents on a 45-degree angle in the open window, with the aluminum slots facing outwards and the rounded edge pointing towards the front of the car;
6. Once the vent is placed into the open window slot, move both sides of the vent upwards into position. Because of the starting position the vent’s right side has a longer way to travel;
7. Once the vent is in position, raise the window into the slot on the underside of the vent. Do this carefully as you may need to move the vent a millimetre or two to ensure the window goes into the vent’s slot.
8. To remove the vent, do these steps in reverse.

OBSERVATIONS
Well made, insect mesh on the inside of the vent to stop the bugs and nasties. Increased air flow and noise in the car with vents fitted. The vents are quick to install and remove, so I will fit them each night when needed - to avoid that Outback dust getting into the car, any more than it does not.

Time will tell if the insect mesh makes a noise/rattle when the car hits corrugations. A non-issue if I install them each night.

The vents meet my needs - air flow at night while I sleep, without unwanted guests.

LONGER TERM REPORT
As we are going into summer in Australia the temperatures are going up. We've had a few days over 30C recently and the air vents have kept the car up to 10-15C cooler, compared to when the windows are up.

I have not taken precise temps but the car is much cooler than leaving the windows closed or a window slightly open. The air vents are working well.

I no longer get into a hothouse on a warm day, the internal heat build up in the car has been substantially reduced.

Highest ambient temp so far has been around 37-39C, and even then the car temp was not that much hotter than ambient temp.
