Engine cover for 2.5L Hybrid Maverick?

[Dman]

This 2.5L hybrid engine cover part number (LX6Z-6A949-B) was mentioned in the thread about ecoboost engine cover, but a Ford Escape thread (URL listed below) gives much more detail. That Escape thread also shows the other three part numbers needed for the complete installation along with photos (see tiny green circles) of where the threaded studs go on the engine. I think most people would say this has no value other than under hood aesthetics, (I agree, but I still want one). Has anyone tried to install one of these yet?

I would go for that! Big question is... will it get too hot, melt down, then set the truck ablaze??

LOL that was a good one. But excellent question perhaps during cold starts and heater set to high the hot cat can do amazing things...

I have a really nice carbonized grey escape limited that I got really cheap after the engine bay cats plugged and burned the engine cover and main computer harness. Replaced everything on top (including plastic intake) and she is a fine runner now. When a coil on plug fails, don’t keep driving. The extra fuel in the cat will burn there and cause an underhood wiring fire…

I prefer the silver cover from the 1st gen hybrid escapes. Think I’ll try for a retrofit.

I did mine.... You only need 1 of each item... I bought too many bolts and nuts.

Would enjoy seeing a underwood photo of your hybrid Mav with the cover installed... Full engine bay, not just close up of the cover.

Just route slits into those factory grooves and send it...

It hovers right above it. No problems right now but it's only got 1500 miles since I put it on
