Are you really going to open your hood during winter when your car isn't inside your garage?

The WeatherTech and AutoVentShade in-channel vent visors for the '07 and '08 LB will fit the '09 3-door LB.

of course im gonna open my hood even though its not garaged, its all part of keeping my engine clean when i give her a bath. NOW, can anyone confirm the freezing of the weatherstrip to the hood or is it just another negative comment as usual....

Agreed...I will open my hood as well!

Any seal will freeze when it's cold enough and there's residual moisture and/or moisture period. I don't recommend it for that reason
