i have been trying to find out what feeds the air to the vents at each end of my dash, i have had a look under the drivers side and i can see no pipes going to the vent from the back any clues???

I would expect to find ducts to the heater (and similar ducts to the windscreen demist vents). But I haven't looked for them. I can confirm that on mine the central eyeball vents are connected straight out to the ram intakes in the front grill.

Cheers,

There should be a pipe running down the Right hand side of the engine bay (knowing TVR it could be anyware)to an air box in front of the radiator.

If I remember correctly, they are connected via corrugated black piping, and once disconnected they 'concertina' back up under the dash. You need fingers like ET to reconnect them.
