Roof vent adapted for the DeLorean would look really cool! An aftermarket kit 
is available for the Fiero, and I'm sure that it could easily be adapted for the 
DeLorean. Especially if someone was to perhaps intergrate it into the T Panel 
on the roof (kinda like the S7). And I'm sure that it wouldn't be a problem to 
install a snorkle thru the louvers. It's just that with limited visability thru the rear 
as it is, the pipe would hamper a bit of your vision. Maybe if you made the 
bottom section of the pipe clear... But I don't know if that would really even 
help with the angle of the eliptical shaped pipe, or if a strong enough material 
could be made that didn't discolor with the heat.

Then again, I'm just guessing about the visability problem, based upon my 
own observations. I never drove a Fiero (let alone one with that intake), and 
the problem of any visability might be overcome with one of those large, 
curved rearview mirrors for trucks that JC Whitney and others sell. I've had my 
eye on one of those for quite a while.
