Just measure three times and cut once - it's hard to take a saw to a perfectly good hood!

When i installed mine i had no sheet metal cutting experience what so ever and probally used the wrong rotary tool and circular hole saw (think it was for wood and not metal due to the large teeth).. and mine came out just fine.. Just make sure you measure and line the template up perfectly and you'll be fine.. Also for the ring that goes around the snorkel on the hood, i didnt even bother using rivets. i just used some 3m tape


Dont forget to extend all four of your breather hoses too aftewards!

Ask for the aev hood for Xmas. No cutting required!
