Life saver..my amazon order didnt have instructions..was about to send it back.
Nice job Ray. Even without paint protection, I like your idea to stick the little bumpers to the deflector instead the hood. Also, you obviouly know this but throwing it out there for those that don't, Always install all the fasteners, screw, bolts ect. before tightening any of them. I'm a retired aircraft mechanic and this is an important simple lesson to learn. Makes live so much easier.
Thanks for your comments and suggestions.
hey Ray, I have a 2022 F250 and have watched some of your videos... I like your approach to your editing, you show some of the difficulties some of these products may have. This is a great quality of your channnel. most other content providers don't want to show this detail. much appreciated, keep up the good work!!! subbed
Thanks for the feedback, it’s greatly appreciated.
Added the mud flaps from your other videos, followed the steps and it went smoothly. Going to do this next. Liked and subscribed to your channel, keep up the good work.

hey Ray, followed you over here from your Amazon review. Thanks for this, saved me a bunch of time trying to decipher the worse instructions I've ever seen.
Thanks for the feedback
Thanks Ray. I just bought one of these for my ‘21 F350. Your video is way better than the miserable instructions that came with it. BTW, I bought the same stool fro HD last year. About the only way I can get to anything under the hood!

Nice job Ray. You could not have made it any simpler and easier to complete unless you did it for me. Your video was easy to follow along and straight to the point unlike the instructions. You got a new follower. Thank you sir.
Thanks for the comments.
Thanks Sir,
I just bought this and the instructions were non existence. Thanks!

Thanks! - was just about to buy this, but your install video led me to check my truck. The required holes are not there on a 2023 F-250 Lariat.
Glad to help.
This was extremely helpful thank you!
You are welcome 🙏🏽. Please 🙏🏽 remember to like the video.
@DIYRAY the printed directions were... insane... pretty sure you sold us on the LED headlight upgrade. We are regretting not getting them factory, but your video makes it seem reasonably doable, especially after watching your deflector install.
Great directions, been trying to decide weather to get a stick on or bolt on deflector for my truck.
Just my opinion, I never like the stick on type. Especially when the stick on material is on Metal. Increase chance of rust buildup. Thanks for the feedback and please remember to subscribe to the channel and like the video
Thank you so much 😊 🙏. This video just helped my out tremendously! 👍

Mine came with some foam strips, that I don't know what they are for. I believe I saw them in your packet as well. What did you do with them?
@@michaelvincent340 they are used if you have a problem with rubbing or vibration. I didn’t use it in my installation.9
How well did this work out over time? Still happy you got it? Did it make a difference with bugs and stones?
Thanks for the question, I haven’t had problems with bugs and rocks hitting my windshield but I really don’t drive in those conditions, also the only problem is with the paint on the deflector. It had been peeling off. I’m have to strip off the old stuff and repainted it . That is the only real problem with this item. Other than that it’s been working out well.
Great tutorial Ray!

Great video was thinking about this deflector on my new 2021 F350? one question? where are the 2 pieces of black weatherstrip type foam go? reference the 54-55 second time in video
Thanks for the feedback and please remember to subscribe to the channel and like the video. To answer the question, the foam is needed only if you have Rubbing or vibration issue. I didn’t use it in my application.
You never mentioned in the video what the black thing did with the white piece on the back where does that go?
I didn't see you install the 2-way foam tape.
My bug shield started shaking vigorously on the highway and I had to pull over and remove it. I never install the tape.
I followed the instructions as directed. Do you have any idea why this would happen. It was snugged down and tight when I finished the install.
Thanks for the feedback. Please remember to subscribe to the channel and like the video. To answer the question, I didn’t use the tape. It was given as a option if you needed it. I haven’t had any problems with my deflector. also review the video again. Give Attention on how I install the rubber stops. To avoid any vibration. Good luck
Great video! How long have you had it installed? Any problems?
Thanks for the feedback and please remember to subscribe to the channel and like the video. I haven’t had any problems with it.
BEWAR!!! I just got mine from Ford with my Ford pass points. They don't say anything about basically gluing to your hood with double backed foam tape. Not a chance that that's going to happen on my new 2023. What if one day you decide you don't want it anymore for some reason? The paint would never be right. Back in the day, they had brackets and bolted up under the hood so that you could replace a damaged one or just take it off with no damage to the paint. Your video was a great tutorial but I'm sending mine back. Not one of Fords better ideas.
I agree with you. That why I placed the rubber bumper on the deflector instead of the hood.
Ray, did you not install the two strips of foam? This is an important piece to reduce vibration of the plastic deflector on the front lip edge of your hood. I did not see it in your video.
Thanks for the feedback. Please check the past comments below. I give a answer to your question. Also answer some other questions in regards to the instructions for this item.
@@DIYRAY - I installed both the foam strips on the inside lip of the hood guard which will negate any rubbing or vibration of the plastic guard on the leading edge if the painted hood area. I have full hood coverage of XPEL paint protection, however the foam strips do serve a purpose. Cheers! 👍🏻😉
@@patriotone755 Whereabouts on the hood or deflector did / should you attach the foam strips? I installed this item and at 75-80mph I get I big vibration like the truck is going to fall apart. I took the deflector off and the vibration is not there so definitely the deflector. Any help to get rid of the vibration is appreciated.
@@gavinm6720 - I installed both the foam strips on the inside lip of the hood guard which will negate any rubbing or vibration of the plastic guard on the leading edge if the painted hood area. I have full hood coverage of XPEL paint protection, however the foam strips do serve a purpose. Do this and you have installed it correctly.
Cheers!
@@patriotone755 Thanks for the info. I refitted the deflector with the 2 foam strips on the bottom leading edge of the deflector and this effectively blocks air from entering the mid section and causing the deflector to vibrate. Seems completely fine now at over 80mph.
So I installed and got a big vibration from the deflector at 75-80mph. I did not install the foam strip. Now I have taken the the deflector off and will install with the foam strip. I know you did not install the foam strip and had no problems but do you know exactly where to place it if you did need it?
I contact the Manufacturer of this product. I asked him the same question. They stated it depends on your application and where the vibration is coming from. I suggest cutting probably 2 inches off the strip and go from there place it where you think you might need it.
Also make sure you installed the same way I installed it. Hoping it will solve your issues. Good luck 🍀
@@DIYRAY Thank you sir!
Where did the weather stripping go? Thanks
Please check the comments below 👇, that question was answered. Thanks.
Did you use the weatherstripping?
No, I didn’t. I just used the rubber stops. I have Driven the truck for several hundreds miles I have not had any problems. Thanks for the feedback and please remember to subscribe to the channel and like the video.
Where’s the foam strips use at?
Thanks
Al
Thanks for the feedback and please remember to subscribe to the channel and like the video. To answer the question, I was wondering the same question. So I reached out to the Manufacturer. They stated that the form is needed if there is Rubbing or contact with the vehicle that is Causing some type of problem or vibration. For me I didn’t use it.
@@DIYRAY great insight. Thanks
@@Al-mu4ff you are welcome 🙏🏽

The 5 bumpers are supposed to stick on the hood, not the deflector
Yes, that’s correct. As I stated in the video. I prefer my set up. Thanks for the feedback and please remember to subscribe to the channel and like the video.
My instructions showed the exact spot on the inside of the hood deflector where the small rubber bumpers are to be installed. If you look hard you will see the spot marked with little dots on the inside of the hood deflector this is where you stick the rubber bumpers. This is so you don’t stick the bumpers on your painted hood or paint protection. The hood which gets really hot from engine heat which will eventually cause the adhesive on the bumper to break down, release and fail. Stick em on the inside of the hood protector where they belong. 👍🏻 Just passing it forward fellas!
Cheers!
Thanks
@@patriotone755 Interesting explanation, I didn't think about the heat and adhesive breaking down. I stuck them on the protector because it just seemed to make better sense. It's sad we are even having this debate thanks to god-awful instructions that require you being in the spectrum to understand
