Angry 2nd Gen air vent near rear windows!!!

Does anyone know how I am supposed to get to the air vents that are at the very rear of the rear sidewindows? I took the interior side panels off, but the air vents look like they have been sheilded 2x over via various welded panels.

Basically I need to SEAL these air vents completely for this year....

Any thoughts?

Why don't you cut some plastic tarp to size, then lay a bead of GE Silicon Sealant around the vent, then press the plastic tarp into the bead of sealant.

Just out of curiousity, do you know something about an antrax attack the rest of us don't know? Why the hermetically sealed passenger compartment?

No that looks like some sort of fowl he shot. Grouse? Pheasant? And im guessing he got the 870 in his name from the kind of shotgun he has, i think a Remington(I think) 870 Express?

I'm either right or I totally wrong. Thats just my take.

haha, boy you guys are good. That is a rooster I'm holding. He was my show bird for 4H and lived to be 11 years old if you can believe that. Your right on on my name too, it is from my Remington 870. The funny thing about that picture is that its from the Oregonian, the largest paper in Oregon. I was at the Washingtion County Fair like every year back in the day, and they were doing "A look at the Fair" or something like that, and so I went with some friends with our show animals, and I ended up in the paper... and the picture was 8"x11"!!!! It was crazy!!! That was my 15 minutes of fame. If the picture was bigger you could read that my shirt says "extinction is forever", the photographer liked how it followed the back of my bird so he had me lower it till you could read it. He also wouldn't let me take off my sun glasses or smile. I was insulted till I saw the picture.
