How easy is it to install a bug deflector?



It is for an '05 OBW. "Nicolaas" wrote in message news:0yZte.36137$rb6.16749@lakeread07... How easy is it to install a bug deflector?

I have installed it myself. The problem however that it comes with the stupid plastic square nuts which must fit perfectly in the hood (in the special grooves)

One of those squares did not lineup perfectly and while screwing the bolt in this nut, it damaged it a bit. I did not noticed anything. However I was not able to completely latch the hood.

Since plastic nut was damaged, I could not use it and drove my car to the dealer. They finished installation.

So yes, it's very easy. However parts are very fragile and may not align exactly.

Yep - easy on all of them. 99-03 OB wgn hardest. Test align at least twice & use a pen tip to mark for screws & pads. Cheers
