Hi
Another vent-solution is:

rowse=heatvent&product=ventilation-components
The can be bought at Spruce but slightly more expensive.
I have seen the installation on a RV4 and look very good. OK not as low
drag as the NACA so you have to accept 0.01 knots penalty.

Hi Steve:
The NACA vent supplied by Europe have been discontinued. These were one
of a
handful of parts the were backorder on my original shipment.
I can tell you the consensus is the they are pretty much garbage. In
fact
many builders have offered to send me their vents gratis! Usually a
very bad
sign...
My understanding is that Spruce has these vents if you are dead set at
repair
and not replacement. Best to buy a few. They break often.
