Hood deflector question....

Postby gond34 » Tue Jan 04, 2011 7:54 am

Anybody else have a hard time getting the Nissan hood deflector (part #999D5-XR00 Hood Protector) installed? I'm having a heck of a time getting the holes on the deflector to line up with the ones on the underside of the hood and, with the holes that do line up, I can't get the damned plastic inserts for the self tapping screws to fit in the holes... Anybody else experience this? If so, what did you do?

I bought an aftermarket one and the holes did not line up either. after I exchanged it for another one and it being the same way I just re drilled the deflector. just make sure that you use the bits that are made for Plexiglas so it does not break.
