Does anyone have one of these illuminated AVS bug deflector things?

I would be interested only if it came with a vehicle specific T harness plug so that no modification or any sort of damage is done to the OEM wire harness to get the signal for the lights. If they want you to T-tap with a plastic tap in that cuts the insulation and exposes the wire to oxygen, then I would be out.... at least until one of the wiring nerds here makes a plug and play T connector to sell to us so that we can maintain the integrity of the OEM wire system.

I do have it. I have yet to install it. It has been cold and wet I want to have somewhat warmer temps before I install it since it uses that 3m type of tape to adhere to the truck. I will hopefully have an update soon.

Any updates on this thing? I was looking at them this morning.

Installed mine the day after I picked up my truck. Ran the wire inside the hood and out a hole down by the hinge. Piggy backs off of one of the running light fuses.

How do you like it? Both as far as a bug/rock deflector and the lights?
Got any pictures?

It paid for itself in Montana 3 days after it was installed. A piece of pallet flew off a truck that had passed me, and hit the deflector on the driver side. It would have hit my paint and windshield.

@ColderWeather86 - What does it look like at night? Can you post a night shot pic?

I don't have any night pictures. You'll have to wait until October for that. I live in Alaska. The sun doesn't set until 10:30 right now, and it's up at 5:30.
