edit again: maybe this helps at least a bit: https://vimeo.com/9185694

edit: just saw you ask for vtec only, i leave the bottom part here for the next guy that ends up searching for vents on the forum....

the trolls have just to pieces of fabric without any holes, one sewn down on the front of the mesh, one sewn down on the back of the mesh.
with the old trolls those two were connected with 3 bartacks on the top, the newer trolls dont have them connected anymore. (same with the osp's)

here pictures of the old troll style vents:

Re: [84n4n4] vtec vent
Thanks for the video link. You can really tell a huge difference in those openings. Does anyone have similar video of the outlaw and/or OSP openings?
