Re: Sealing off floor vents

The problem with welding them is you burn off the paint on the inside of the vent and have no way to recoat it. If your truck sees rain the back sides of those welds get wet. Better to attach the plates with seam sealer and maintain the integrity of the paint inside the vent.
