firewall drain covers

Hi everyone, I'm curious how many of you have removed the rubber firewall drain covers or have left them in place? I imagine ford put them there to keep varmints out of firewall area.Thanks for your replies.

If we're talking about the same thing...I actually just cleaned mine out today. We're getting a lot of rain, and they were pretty stopped up with leaves/junk/etc.

I just clean mine out. Can't be havin' critters. But then, I also don't much park under trees and stuff, so there's that helpful bit in keepin' the channels cleared out.

Havin' a garage helps immensely.

Just cleaned mine out and changed the cabin air filter last week. Don't know if had ever been done before I bought the car or not, but the drains were pretty clean. I left them in place.
