There are after market tubes that work better. I don't know the name, but I
rented a plane with them, and it was more quiet, and cooler.

Hopefully someone will have the name.

Our club owns a 1978 172. The little tabs that hold the pilots side air
vent in the tube have come out and been lost, so when you get up to
speed, it just pops out (makes the right seat nice adn cool this time of
year, but will be a problem in winter). Any ideas on easy fixes or
finding the replacement part without spending a good bit of money?
