ZO6 Style Screens
Has anyone installed any of the ZO6 styled screens that fit over/in the various vent/break openings on their C5.
Are they easy to install, and how are they installed. :seeya

There's been quite a bit of discussion on this. Here's a thread I posted (with pics) a little while ago.

Actually, those are easier tahn the way I did it. Other members have put them in from the front through the brake vents with no trouble and a lot of TLC.

Re: ZO6 Style Screens (dtrautwein)
Are You talking about the front Z06 screens or the rear side brake cooling screen?
On mine we cleaned the upper and lower area of the front air scoop, loaded up so black silcone on the top and bottom of screen and set them inside. Took about 10 minutes and have not budged in 6 months. When I got instructions I decided there was NO WAy I was going to jump through those hoops unless I had too and so far the silcone has saved me the time. NOW the side brake scoops where a WHOLE different ball game. Cutting a HUGE hole in the body of a new C5 is SCARY!!
