No problem at all, rode some really deep cold snow last year and they worked awesome, will be puttin them on my new sled
I have run them on 3 sleds now , no problems here.
I put a set on my M7 and had no problems at all.
When you buy these vents from fastlane, do they already come setup on side panals, or do you have to drill your stock panals because Id rather buy a set already on side panals and save my stock ones.
No they don't come already on the panels and I don't know of anywhere that does that either. Sorry

have had them for two years now and have no complaints. great products and they work very well.
were does a guy order fastlane side vents online? thanks
Did order my vents in the begining of march, but haven't heard anything from them, no tracking nr. and no response on email..? Are they still in business?
if you haven't received them they didn't get the order because they ship the same day or the next day give eric or troy a call they will make it right
Did recive a mail from Troy, so he's on to it...
I wish that the venting material was glued onto it's frame, so it won't bulge in when you get snow pressing on the vents...
I know I will reassemble my vents, and glue the mesh onto the frame..

I've got the Fastlane vents on both my M's. Both sets have holes in the vent on the right side(can side) from tipping the sled in pow. I contacted Troy eariler in the year about getting replacement filters but no response. IMO, a good product but not great. If I was purchasing I'd probably go with the Timbersled vents.
Ok... It have been most easily to get only the mesh for replacement...
Did you use a holesaw or did you cut out everything, like the frame...

A) side panels don't come with them or they'd be 3 times the price.
B) use a hole saw - otherwise I would think tou would lose a lot of the rigidity of the panel.
C) I had a set on an M8 with a speedwerx can - can was not coated. 1/2 way thru the season it melted the mesh and warped the plastic frame. I have since ceramic coated the can so it stays cooler. It also quieted it down quite a bit.
D) check out these; they are more rigid , seems like more of a metallic mesh, much cleaner look , and I believe are much more durable. I bought two sets for my newer sleds and no issues. As a matter fact the Speedwerx can is on the sled with the new vents and no issues. 2COOL vents all the way!

I agree, 2 cool vents are the best out there. they actually have a metal frame, they frame is on the inside so you get a lot less or no snow buildup on the vents, and they are the strongest vents i have come across so far. They also have pre filter behind the rigid screens to keep all snow out.
