RAI removal
Thinking about fitting a mantec RAI to my disco but not keen on the extra wind noise and decreased mpg while back in the uk. So have many people take them off when not needed or is it too much of a pain ?

I thought you'd end up with a great big hole in the fender if you took them off.

I thought it was possible to take it off and reinstate the side vent ?

You can, but there will be 2 small holes from where the RAI was fixed to the wing.

What I did. There will also be a hole in the A pillar trim, black gaffer tape can sort that out.
