As I have done for past VW events, buy Hoodjax and I'll fit for free (but you have to hand me the spanners!) at the VW Nationals next weekend.
Who wants one?
"Hoodjax is a decklid stand-off device for Beetles (all years) that allows the top of the engine lid to be propped open, letting in plenty of fresh cool air for maximum engine cooling and performance. Thanks to the use of quick-release R-clips, Hoodjax is quickly and easily removed for security and for driving/parking in cold or rainy weather, or for ‘stock’ appearance. Ideal for rats or sleepers! Hoodjax is especially ideal for pre-1971 with no engine lid vents.
Hoodjax has been proven over the last decade to assist the cooling of big bore, stroker and turbo engined Beetles. Hoodjax helps deliver maximum power and reduces the 'hot idle' stumbles caused by fuel vaporisation - especially in summer.
Installation is DIY and takes around 15 minutes for initial fitting * FREE FITTING AT EASTER! * after that, Hoodjax can be removed in seconds - in your driveway or by the roadside. Installation requires two holes to be drilled in your engine lid’s hinge C-brackets, plus the use of some other simple hand tools. Instructions are provided. A secondary benefit is that your engine lid is now quickly removable for easy engine bay access during servicing.
Cost is $80."
