After you have the shape, i just drill a few holes around the edge of the piece your adding and fish the tie around something in the grill and zip. Locate the holes by something to tie to. I use sheet metal, roof flashing comes in rolls, house hold window plexiglass.

Chris D. that looks too good, store bought!

current vw winter configuration is post #7 this thread, flat grill with the license plate covering half of it.
you thinn' some kind of sliding plate thingy.

In the summer i need one square foot to keep water and oil cool, in the winter on a cold zero day, i can drop the temp gage enough to close the thermostat with the heater alone. I am only burning a gallon an hour, so in the winter i have to block just to heat the cab.
