air Vents that glue (?) into the canopy

[Guest rocketdriver]

Does anyone know where I can by fresh air vents that I can glue into a canopy? I want to replace some heavy and panel space occupying car type airvents on a KR2 which has a blown canopy (no truly flat surfaces I think). I've seen these types of vents in Jabs and Gazelles but don't know where to get tnem ..... they have a rotatable inner part that adjusts the airflow .... I'm hoping I could fit them into one of the flatter parts of the cabnopy .....

I used Snap Vents from Aircraft Spruce, they just fit into a round hole and can be rotated to control the flow There are 4 different types in the currenc cattle dog all below US$14. No problem fitting them to my blown canopy.

How soon do you want them? I'm putting together an order from Spruce & Specialty. Your vents could piggy-back.

Hi,

 

The x-air agent on the Gold coast has snap vents for about $50 if that is any help?
