A GRP (fibreglass) roof vent in a teardrop profile, designed to be bonded or bolted into a cutout in the car’s roof. Part number 24P0060.
A race car cabin gets hot. A full track session in a helmet and fireproof suit with the windows up produces temperatures that affect concentration well before they become a medical issue. In endurance racing, cabin heat is a serious welfare factor across stints of two hours or more. A roof vent creates a low-pressure extraction point: the teardrop shape catches pressure at the wide leading edge and draws hot air out through the narrow trailing edge as the car moves forward. Cold air does not come in; hot air is drawn out. A roof-mounted extractor vent works without requiring the window to be open, which matters on a circuit where open windows create aero imbalance or where rules restrict it.
Fitting requires cutting through the roof. This is a one-way step and needs to be done correctly the first time. Mark out the cutout, trial fit the moulding dry, and seal around the base properly before bonding to prevent water ingress. Most teams fit roof vents at the same time as other roof apertures to minimise how many separate cutting jobs happen to the roof.
At £189.50, this is a single-piece GRP moulding with no seams to open up. The teardrop profile is the standard motorsport shape seen across touring car, saloon car, and club racing.
