Has anyone cut open the fog light housing to allow more air to enter the engine compartment? If so, pics please? Also, other than the potential for more dirt inside the engine bay, are there any disadvantages?

Do a search on "fog light". There's been several threads on this subject. Of course, whether the search function will work, or not, is a crap shoot.

caster5303,
I used a keyhole saw and cut a rectangular piece (approx. 1.5" X 4") from each fog light shroud. I also installed the hood seal and Z06 screens and did the stock air box mod...no aftermarket intake yet. My engine compartment stays clean...of course I wash, wax and vacuum it
