The hole is covered from the FACTORY for a reason. Engineers test how air circulates in the engine bay during operation so the only "functionality" people create when removing that is you functionally made it worse. gg. Honestly, if you put temp sensors throughout the engine bay, you can see why things are placed where they are. We seen instances where people removed boxes, batteries, etc. from the engine bay and certain areas got hotter than normal. My strng suggestion to everyone is to do "REAL" research before trying mods like this. Its similar to guys who increase intake ducting side for more "airflow". Great job because they just decreased intake air velocity.
