HOOD VENT REMOVAL
How do you remove the rear vents from a '91 TA stock hood? I can see the nuts that hold the front 2 vents through access holes, but I cannot find any hardware holding the rear pieces in place. Do they just pop out or pry out (with care)?
Mine are down to primer in places and need to be refinished. I would rather do them off of the car but I suppose I can mask and paint on the car if I have to.
Thanks for any advice.

Re: HOOD VENT REMOVAL
yes the rear ones do just pop out pretty much and yes the front ones do have speed-nuts that hold them down, but unless you take a dremel or a hole saw to them to widen up the hole for the 5/8 socket (i think thats what it is atleast) then you have to go at it with a pair of needle nosed plyers and just inch it out....it'll take youa a while

Thanks. I'll try to gently push them out tomorrow.
