ABSTRACT:
An air current deflector shield is provided having a substantially horizontally disposed base portion and an integrally formed deflecting portion extending upwardly from the base portion so as to deflect air over the windshield of a motor vehicle. The shield is mounted to the hood of the vehicle with a plurality of quick release fasteners, including a grommet having a plurality of expandable legs, and a plunger slidably positioned within the grommet for movement between a locked position and an unlocked position. When the plunger is moved to the locked position, the legs of the grommet are expanded into frictional engagement with holes in the hood of the vehicle, so as to securely mount the shield upon the hood. When the plunger is moved to the unlocked position, the legs of the grommet are collapsible for withdrawal from the holes in the hood, such that the shield can be quickly and easily removed from the hood.
