When there are many catkins or in summer, it is very annoying to cover the cooling mesh with high-speed mosquitoes. After all, cleaning is very laborious.
My Volvo s90 has also been driving for some time. I have always been driving casually, and I didn’t say that I drove it with special care. When I was washing the car this year, the boy worker told me why not install an insect net. There are too many catkins. The water tank condenser has to be covered, and look at you now have a lot of insect corpses on it.
I lay down and took a look, and it was really… especially the one facing the China Net.
It was discovered that there are about two types of insect nets nowadays. One is a universal type that is a large piece of stainless steel net, and the other is a special type for special vehicles.
The advantages and disadvantages are obvious. The universal type is cheap, but it is not matched and is a bit rough. The special type is more expensive, but it is matched.

I think my hands-on skills are pretty good, so I bought a special car online and spent the weekend installing it!

There are four pieces of net in total, two pieces on the top and two pieces on the bottom. The quality is just so-so. This kind of thing will be thrown away if it doesn’t work for a few years.
The straps are a little short… I bought some straps, but they are too thin and can’t be used… What a trap…

The first step, of course, is to open the cover first. How to open the cover? There is a buckle on the left side of the cockpit. It will open with a strong button with your hand.
After opening it, the cover also has a switch similar to a safety. Stretch in your hand and break the cover to open it. When you lift it up, you can start operating with the hydraulic rod support it.

This bayonet is quite annoying. I started to tilt it for a long time but didn’t open it. After studying it, I found that I needed to press down the small black spot in the middle and then pull it up.
There are a total of five buckles. After you remove all of them, you can take off this guard and start!
Just push the insect net in, and then use the cable tie and the tool clip he brought to secure it.
I consulted about the two pieces below, which are difficult to install, so it is best to remove the screws below before installing them.

Just stuff it in. This is more laborious and manual. It’s best to wear thin gloves.
