neither does any cool air! lol

as for winter driven cars....i would do a major spring clean in my trix after all the snow was gone and it'd usually last a month or two....just used simple green degreaser (cover the alternator, air filter, and battery) and then hose down the engine bay....super clean, super easy

Where did you buy the seal? Do you have a manufacturer and product name or part number?
