Simple as 1, 2, 3, 4

Open package, set rubber nut and screw in the deflector, slide into 4 hole already in the hood, tighten

i like how it hugs the hood.  kit came with clear rubber stoppers/bumpers I put on the ends where high speed might cause the deflector to hit the hood

the wind visors were a little more challenging to say the least.  Easy to install but you want to take you time to ensure they are lined up

make sure you use the alcohol cleaning pad they give you to take off all the wax prior to installing

Looking good!

Looks good Loggie. I lost my front window visor going down the road one day with the windows down so I need to grab another set and replace em.

The bug deflector was $55 and the wind deflector was $60 but because I bought them together it ran $95.  And AutoZone had them sitting on the shelves
 
Do u still have ur AV?  Does the bug deflector actually deflect bugs?  At 70-75 mph? I Need one bad...have love bugs here now!
 
I don't have the '08 but I bought a '12 and put the same deflector on it.  Yes, it deflects a lot of the bugs off the windshield.  I HATE LOVE BUGS :beating:

When I lived in South GA and when the love bugs are out, I'd washed my AV every day.
 
Love bugs suck...

Hence I do not drive when they are out.
 
What an elegant and inexpensive upgrade. I really do love that look on these trucks. The bugflector II adds an amazing profile to them. Especially on the 07+

Not sure if I've EVER owned a vehicle that didn't have vent visors on the windows...was always a "gotta have" for me.

What really sets them off is that 6 inch strip along the top of your windshield. I've never been a fan of the idea on other trucks/cars I've seen them on over the years but for as big as these trucks are it really makes an awesome addition. I hope to have mine done in the near future. (After a goodly detailing)
