Yes, this shield will really block off the open area. I have mudflaps and this shield. Glad I was able to install it before salty road season here in northeast, OH. That open area could hold alot hardpacked, filthy, salty ice.
see I dont really want mudflaps so if they can create another piece to block off that spot + this, id love that kit. will be following these guys
There aren't really mutiple spots back there to address. This shield covers "the" spot. It's not cheap but it's heavy duty and does the job really well. I got mudflaps because I like them for what they do at all four wheels like help stop stones from chipping the paint down low and help keep some of the slush build-up from catching hold etc. Not sure if you have had a first hand look at the area in question or not. I have an XL so no cubby storage at all and when I saw it it seemed cavernous. Sure, I got a mudflap but I knew as soon as I saw it that I wanted to cover it if I could. I started researching what others had done and thought about what I might come up with and lo and behold, my procrastination paid off and Mabett came out with this. Install this and never have to worry about double checking to make sure the zipties are holding LOL

Honestly, torque specs aren't important and not really applicable to a part like this. Put some blue Locktite on the bolts and just tighten them down... not over tight, no need to be The Hulk, just snug them up then turn just a little more. There will be no heat cycling on a part like this and the Locktite will take care of possible loosening from vibration.
gotcha. fortunately I have some of that already so I can proceed. has anyone made a video of this install? I can't quite tell what I should be removing from the wiring harness in step one but maybe if I look more carefully at the bracket that is getting installed there I'll be able to sort it out. am I correct that the bolt removed in step one is painted? I hate to remove that thing unless it's the correct one.
