Y8830 VENTILATION OF 10-EX FRONT DRIVING SEATS. We wish to carry out some tests on the temper-ature of the driving seats of 10-EX. Will you please supply us with 2 panels which can be fitted into holes cut in the sides of 10-EX scuttle, which contain half a dozen louvres of the same length and pitch as those already fitted to the bonnet. We should like the panels made so that they can be inverted so that we can try the effect of the louvres facing in different directions.
