I dont know of this massively helps as I haven't actually fitted them yet so cant comment on how good they are but I ordered the rings and adaptors off this seller on ebay for the 8p vents, all looks okay i just haven't been to buy needle nose pliers yet to remove the vents :roll:

I dont mean to hijack the thread but would the original vents go back in as they came out if I didn't like the 8p vents? The reason I ask is I dont know if I'm 100% on swapping the vents out, bought them quite spontaneously as I got the full set rather cheap :roll:

Nope... part of the original caddy vent is needed also the 8p vents fit better if they are put in upside down.
so you will then have to change the internal blade's around which is not hard to do.Image

I'm sure the latest gen s3 go straight in as theyre bigger but could do with the adaptor thing for maximum efficiency which the seller I linked does sell. As for the 8p if you dont want to cut your caddy vents the link i posted is a plug and play adaptor kit to avoid this. Rodmax as previously said they work a treat but I'm yet too find out because they're stuffed in a drawer :lol:
