Video Transcript for Westin HDX Winch Mount Grille Guard with Punch Plate Review

Speaker 1: Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Westin line of HDX winch mount grille guards with punch plates. It's available in two colors, black powder coated steel and polished stainless steel.This Westin grille guard is not only gonna look cool, it's gonna give you that rugged look while offering you maximum protection for the front of your truck. It features a winch mounting tray, that'll fit with most medium frame style winches. Here in the front, it features a mount for a fairlead. It's custom fit to your truck. Here you can see how it wraps around and is gonna contour the front end of your truck.

The steel mesh guard here in the front is gonna help protect against twigs, brush or any other debris.The whole guard has a black powder coated finish. Some of our customers have even mentioned after years of use in salty conditions, there's no rust or corrosion, so it holds up for a long time. The whole thing is a bolt-on installation. You'll need to remove the factory grille and the bumper to get it in place, but with two people, you should be able to knock it out in a good day's work.What I like about this grille guard is how solid it is. Compared to other grilles out there, this one is not gonna move.

Some of the guys around the shop here have even mentioned how nice it is to be able to stand on it and perform maintenance underneath the hood while leaning over the tube.Another thing I'd like to mention is that if you we're to hit any deer or any other animals, it's gonna do a good job of protecting some of your internals underneath the hood, things like your radiator or your AC condenser. Those things can be expensive.All in all, this grille guard's gonna look really cool, it's gonna give you that rugged look that you want, and it's gonna do a great job of protecting the front end of your truck. And that's gonna complete our look at the Westin HDX grille guard.
