when I did mine I drilled 5 or 6 ...2 inch holes so that I could cover them up with duck tape during the winter..snow gets in there a lot easer and go further in then rain can....JMO

Ron, your link is not coming up for me for some reason.

I just took a die grinder with a tapered bit and ate a relatively huge hole in the thing. It gets air in there now.

lol maybe it was cause i copy and pasted your link..lol i used a hole saw..like said snow will travel further under the hood then rain will..thats why i did mine like that...the smaller holes makes for better place for the duck tape to stick rather then a one big hole...it all works the same in the end...

I did what Jason did. I used a Dremel tool with a cutting bit and it cut it really easily.
