Default RE: engine hood heatshield

mine started to fall down when i had a super bright idea to hit it with the pressure washer at the car wash... lol... 16billion PSI kinda screwed itup... any event...i can yank it down and screw in an extra set of fog lights that i got laying around so when i can actually see what im doing if its pitch black out and i run into a problem and have to pop the hood.... it sux trying to hold a maglight in your mouth and wrenchin on something on the side if I90 at 4 A.M.

Good god is mine the only one thats not falling down? My trucks older then most of yours too! Mines a '97!
I think the reason mine is doing that is because it is so humid around here.... My truck only has 51K on it.

The rest of the heatshield is drooping too, so it makes me think the constant humidity has an effect on it.

Thats the only thing i miss about my chevy... It had an auxilary light under the hood that was detachable and had 25 feet of cable to it... I could circle the truck with it if i wanted to... Yep, sure do miss that...

Thats the only thing i miss tho lol
