Yep. The boot mount cooler was setup to draw in cool air from both side vents.
If you cut away some of the rubber behind the vents it allows air to enter the boot area on each side. Then the two fans blow that air down through the cooler and out.
That method was used so you don't need an ugly scoop on the boot lid which keeps the water out etc etc
