Re: 944 1987 vents?

they have nothing to do with cooling the brakes - they are then to get air 
over the rear hatch, as I recall - I don't have a 944 here to double check
- 
they basically connect the door interior to the rest of the body interior
- 
If my memory serves and there are some small vent holes near the hatch,
then 
the above speculation is correct - they could also be associated with 
reducing/eliminating condensation in the body interior - but for sure they

have nothing to do with any of the car mechanical systems.

by the way, I have a set of these to get rid of if anyone needs them -
still 
trying to get rid of the remnants of an 87S that got seriously hurt
