The 50 pack was about $10 so worth the try. Prod 97763A339 they call it rounded head. The car is mostly under cover so I cannot evaluate standing up to washing but that's what stainless is for. If anyone wants some ping me so I don't have to eat the shipping (small as it may be). Jason281, if you're team wants them we can figure that out too. Dang, I am so psyched to have this settled. 07 SC auto still fun with seeing Shelby GT350 flat planes driving around. The newer vents sure would be sweet but this is getting to be a proper fix.
Thanks for the tip. My LH hood vent just broke. Lasted 173k miles and 13 years.
