    After upgrading all the bus bars and nuts today on my battery pack, I decided to take a look at the fan and clean it if needed.

    Couldnt find my can of compressed air so used a toothbrush. 20230506_121637.jpeg 20230506_122440.jpeg

    Also besides the filter I already added some time ago on the outside of the vent.

    I found out about another one and wanted to see if I could add it, it was also said that it is not found in all models so I wasnt to surprised mine didnt have it.

    Some sites will say it fits 2010-2015 but it did not really fit my 2010 but I made it work.

    Now the fan is clean and has two filters to help keep it clean. Screenshot_2023-05-06-16-29-31-1.jpeg 20230506_094749.jpeg 20230506_094812.jpeg 20230506_125145.jpeg 20230506_125720.jpeg
