J.C. Whitney Active Grille Shutter Kit

The J.C. Whitney Active Grille Shutter Kit is a replacement active grille shutter (also called a radiator shutter or active aero shutter) for the upper grille opening. It comes with an actuator. The shutter vanes sit in front of the radiator. They open to let in cooling air and close to cut aerodynamic drag.

Key Features:

• Actuator-driven louvers: An electric actuator, controlled by the vehicle's computer, moves the shutter vanes between open and closed positions.
• Better aerodynamics: Closed vanes smooth airflow at the front of the vehicle. This reduces drag and can help fuel efficiency at highway speeds.
• Engine temperature management: Open vanes send air through the radiator and A/C condenser when cooling demand is high. Closed vanes help the engine warm up faster in cold weather.
• Replacement design: Restores shutter operation when vanes, linkage or the actuator are broken, stuck or no longer responding. A faulty shutter can set fault codes and cause a warning light.
• Kit convenience: The actuator is included, so you do not need to source it separately.
