Radiator Covers Keep Heat In, Bugs Out
The bug screen and radiator blanket are separate covers but use the same mountings for interchangeable year-round versatility on pickups, vans or trucks.
Installation consists of drilling holes in the truck's front grille and screwing in a series of Velcro fasteners. The bug screen and winter cover both fasten to the Velcro fasteners and can be interchanged in seconds.
Made by Longhorn Mfg., in Gallatin Gateway, Mont., the covers fit all domestic pickups and vans, jeeps and scouts and most imported mini-trucks.
The winter grille cover is designed to shorten engine warm-up time, increase interior warmth and protect the grille from snow, ice, sand and salt. It also replaces unattractive cardboard cover-ups. It has a built-in zipper for regulating the amount of air admitted to the engine.
The summer bug screen helps keep the radiator from plugging with insects, leaves and dirt and prevents overheating caused by plugged radiator fins. It washes easily at commercial car washes.
The Cold Front radiator blanket sells for $29.95 and the Bug Screen sells for $23.95.
