Default Rear Window Louvers

Hey all just bought an 06 v6 5 spd yesterday and I want to put rear window louvers on it.
But I don't want to spend the $700 plus for the Roush Louvers. Can anyone recommend a cheaper alternative? I know they are out there I just don't know which ones are good and which aren't.

Thanks,
Skip

Roush louvers arent 700 bucks.........you can get them for 130.00 - 160.00 depending on wher you get them from. I got mine from ss inserts.........and love them......think im the only one that has them.

I have SS gen 1 louvers, I believe - I like how they look. They're not entirely too expensive.

not sure where you got a price of $700 for Roush louvers but they told you wrong. I got mine from Jegs with free shipping and they were $160.

I'm guessing the $700 is for a REAR window louver... Not 1/4 window louvers..

I like my MRT louvers... both REAR and 1/4 window... LOL

Yes the rear window louvers not the 1/4 window ones although I want those too.

I found MRT's website.

Thanks

Here's a pic of my 06, funny she's yellow too!

Do you have any problems with vibrations from the rear louvers? Like does it rattle or hit against the back window? I want one, but I am concerned about this. In my old GT it had the aluminum louvers that would vibrate, especially over a bump.
