Can anyone tell me of a manufacturer who makes a product to block the grill/radiator to keep heat in the engine compartment. Tired of using a cardboard box. I have seen them in the past they are made of black vynil and usually have a zipper in the middle to adjust air flow. I dont know what they are called. Thanks..
Aren't they called winter fronts? Being from the south, I don't use one. at one temp would you need one?
I havent used one in the past. If your temps dont get below 25 degrees I wouldnt worry about it. Here it can get below zero alot. I use fuel addative to keep the fuel from jelling, I keep my truck inside so I dont need the battery blankets. On real cold days the engine temp can take a long time to get to operating temps, which is why I need one of these. I found the Mopar radiator cover priced under a 100 bucks plus 13 shipping on the net. If anyone is needing one let me know and I will post the link.
The Plexiglas does look cool and it's relatively cheep but that isn't going to do near a much good as what a cover that goes directly over the radiator and covers the entire thing. If you're looking for functionality you need a true radiator cover.
Cool, well if my budget doesn't allow me to get the kit I'll look at doing that. It does look pretty sweet. How old it that Plexiglas? I know it likes to discolor over time but yours looks nice and shinny.
