So my question is are the rear quarter vent latches adjustable? My quarter vents stay open until about 80kph then close with airflow. At about 110kph they flap like crazy unless latched closed which defeats the concept of flow thru ventilation. Before I butcher the two fittings above and below the hinge pin, does anyone know whether they are threaded and adjustable? All suggestions appreciated.............maybe an aluminium plate and zip ties to hold it over centre?? |

Ring Warner or Smith they may have some sand paper to rough up the hinge. |

Thanks for the suggestion, I was trying to avoid "Hinge Tampering", you just never know who's watching. |

I find they stay open if you fit new Oz rubbers. Mine have been fine for 10 years now. To adjust tightness when closed I used flat washers under the latch. |
