Default C4-C5 hatch vent

For those of you who might be interested, I just received a hatch vent for my '95 coupe. I purchased it from "The Corvette Gadget Man" (http://www.corvettegadgetman.com). He is a pleasure to do business with and the part was shipped promptly.

His hatch vent performs the same function as those costing $29.95 and $39.95 from other well known vendors. The Gadget Man's product is only $23 with free shipping.

I have no connection with this vendor other than as a customer. I just though some of you might be interested in purchasing a quality product while at the same time saving a few bucks.

Regards, Paul

Just ordered mine from the gadgetman on Friday - received an email from him on Sunday indicating it had been sent out on Saturday, and should arrive by the end of this week. Can't wait to test it out. $23 inlcuding shipping is tough to beat

I can not say enough nice things about the Gadgetman - They are the best. I've had one for 2+ years, and LOVE it. I'm using the 'new design' now, and it's here to stay

I ordered my EZ Vent from the Gadgetman on 4/19. It was shipped on 4/20 and I received it yesterday (4/26). Very great service and a quality product. Gadgetman emailed me to let me know it was shipped and responded very promptly when I emailed him to let him know it arrived. Gadgetman is one of the best Corvette vendors I've dealt with and I'd recomend his product to anyone.

This is a product I wanted to buy, but there is just one thing no one is posting: Does it work??? Everyone seems happy with his service, but does it lower air turbulence or cockpit noise?

Keep the wave alive.

I'm buying it entirely because of how it enhances the exhaust noise. The rest is just a bonus.
