ABSTRACT:
A replacement grill having slidable headlight covers is Provided for trucks, sport utility vehicles, and other motor vehicles. The grill includes a frame with a grillwork to allow airflow into the engine compartment. Headlight covers are slidably mounted within the frame for movement between open and closed positions. The movement of the headlight covers is controlled by a motor which is electrically connected to the vehicle headlight switch. Thus, the headlight covers are automatically opened when the headlights are turned on and automatically closed when the headlights are turned off. A chain and sprocket assembly connects the headlight covers to the motor.
