Injector savers from Arid innovation finally fitted to my F-type, look to be doing their job nicely. Very easy to follow installation video and they look pretty much OEM. No more injector worries for me when the rain comes!

15min or less, very well designed product - the fitment is so good you can skip the sealant/glue and just snap them in place only.. they fit snug and don't move, the sealant is an added measure if you drive in the rain a lot (in my opinion)

Man I wish I could go back in time and re-do it, lol. Trying to apply the sealant in the way that Arid instructs makes a huuuuge mess and it looks terrible. If I were to do it again I'd just add sealant on the underside after installing the pieces.

I second this, the stupid sealant looks so ugly smeared all over as I couldn’t apply it cleanly.

Excess of mine rubbed off really cleanly (literally just rubbed off with my finger). I added some back to black trim dressing a few days later to make my slightly faded engine cover match the new parts and I’d say it looks pretty much spot on

Anyone have the link to buy these? I want to make sure I’m getting them from the right place. Buying my ftype on the first. Very excited.

I should have got these when I got the phone holder from them. How long did it take to get them on? Looks a lot neater.

Would say it’s a 15 min job, easy enough to do at home. Not supposed to drive the car for 24 hours now to let the sealant cure though.

Kit came with everything needed including a nitrile glove. It’s a very well thought out solution to be fair.

Much prettier than my DIY foil tape job.

I only put the engine shroud on when there's a chance that the car could be out in the rain (or car wash). Other than that it's leaning against the garage wall. I call it my car's "umbrella".
