Upper grill block and other air blocks

On the VX's I would see as high as 140 degrees in the engine compartment in the summer, but even with the upper grill blocked and the shutters on the lower grill closed I was only seeing 80 or 90 degrees under the hood of the Insight.





I will need to work on getting more heat in the engine compartment.
