Standard Motor Products AGS1000 Radiator Active Grille Shutter Assembly

The Standard Motor Products AGS1000 is a direct-fit OE replacement radiator active grille shutter assembly designed to regulate your vehicle's frontal airflow for improved aerodynamic efficiency and fuel economy. This precision-engineered component automatically opens and closes to optimize engine cooling while reducing drag and fuel consumption.

Key Features:

• Direct-fit OE replacement ensures proper fit, form, and function for easy installation
• High-grade industrial plastic construction resists corrosion and withstands extreme engine temperatures
• Undergoes 100% end-of-line testing to meet or exceed OE performance standards
• Integrated motor for automatic shutter operation
• 4-terminal blade connector with female connector gender for plug-and-play installation
• Black finish for OEM appearance

How It Works:

Active grille shutters represent advanced automotive technology designed to improve fuel efficiency. When the engine requires cooling, the shutters open to allow air to flow through the radiator and into the engine compartment. When cooling air is not needed, the shutters close automatically, rerouting air around the vehicle to reduce aerodynamic drag and fuel consumption. During cold starts, the system keeps the vanes closed as long as possible, helping the engine reach optimal operating temperature more quickly and reducing warm-up time. When fully closed, the reduction in drag can decrease CO2 emissions by nearly 2%.

This assembly is commonly needed for replacement after front-end collision damage or when mechanical failure or calibration errors occur. Standard Motor Products backs this component with their commitment to quality and precision engineering, making it an ideal choice for professional technicians and DIY enthusiasts alike.
