05-06 Tahoe Air Deflector

[dhulsey779]

Just pick up a 05-06 Air Deflector to install on my 03 Tahoe.
I read that some have installed this using zip ties, and some drilled out and just bolted it up.
Does anyone have any pictures of there air deflector install so I can plan the install out. Not really looking to buy another air deflector.

Thanks

Get it from the dealer ?

 

[dhulsey779]

Hell no, actually picked it up from Rock Auto for $40.

Nice! Did Amazon have it?

 

[dhulsey779]

Yes, but a lot more $. Think Amazon wanted like $90

Damn, I've heard Rock Auto has some great deals .

Bought mine at the dealership for 60 bucks for my old 04. Popped it on and self tapped screwed it in place. Used about 8 screws and had it that way for 3-4yrs no issues

That's what I was thinking of going with along with the 10mm bolts for the end pieces. Thanks for the suggestion.

Mine has 5 small bolts with small washers and nuts. Probably overkill but I took a ditch last winter with my 2/3 drop and it stayed on lol. Also, for some reason the factory speed nuts already on it on the outside edges to did not want to line up with the upper half very well so i drilled through and bolted there as well.

Thanks for the pics Mizzouguy, already gathered the hardware and hope to complete it this afternoon in like 106 degree heat!
