WOOW ok thats good and bad ..........lol I was afraid that the PO had removed something and not replaced it....so I guess thats the good part.....lol the bad part is that it really looks like it is missing something...hahahah
I didnt like this area on my vettes so I bought the black plastic wiper area cover from a supporting vendor. I really think it cleans up the area and hides the internals of the wiper system.
yea Mike i noticed that on a couple other vettes i have seen that they had ignition sheilding for the distributor I thought it was just for dressing it up some....is there a different reason for it?
Use a brush to loosen up any debris, then vacuum out dirt/leaves. Then spray tire foam liberally in there . . .there's really nothing you can hurt. You can either wipe it to even it out - -or let it dry. A couple of coats and you'd be amazed how it improves the area.
As noted, you can buy a cover for it, but it's not the best designed area on our C3s . . .IMO
Interferece. Without the shielding you can pick up ignition noise, especially in the AM band, from the HEI. Usually much less or no interference in the FM band without it.
I had one on all my later C3s. I think its a no brainer. Fits perfectly, doesnt affect the wipers, very secure with 2 screws. Much better looking than trying to make that junk catcher area look better.
