DIY Removable Grill Block - 1994 Honda Del Sol Si

[Shortie771]

The texas weather killed my grill block. My car was getting too hot for the grill block (even with the large holes in it). After I burned up my radiator fan control switch and had to replace it, I removed the grill block. I am currently working on an idea to make a grill block that stays open when the car is moving slowly and closes at higher speeds.

Sorry to hear about the issues you had. I was excited to read the first post because I have a 93 Civic and have been trying to figure out what will work for a grill block and what won't. It's a project that's on the back burner for now, but I'll be interested to see what you come up with!

Well I have found my solution in the form of a grill block that opens itself at low speed and as you increase speeds it closes. Check out my other thread. It may be able to solve your problem. Also, that thread is still pretty active, not dead like this one

Hope that helps.

this is a good reason to save those cardboard rings that tape comes on. you can stack several of them on their sides and make an "aimer" type tube.
