Abstract
A single shaped panel partitions off a portion of a vehicle cowl air box and adds structural rigidity to the box. The shaped panel is formed with raised portions which define openings which fluidly communicate the partitioned section of the air box with the remainder thereof. Some of the raised portions are formed with holes for mounting windshield wiper linkages or the like and/or are formed to act as a water deflector which prevents rain water or the like from passing through the box to an air outlet fluidly communicating with the partitioned section of the air box.
