Frequently Asked Questions About Freightliner M2 Business Class Windshield Accessories
Will these windshield accessories fit my specific year Freightliner M2?
Most of our windshield accessories are designed to fit Freightliner M2 Business Class trucks from 2003 to present. However, there was a significant cab redesign in 2011 that affects fitment. Pre-2011 models have different windshield dimensions and mounting points than 2011+ models. Always check the product description for specific year ranges, or contact our support team with your VIN to ensure proper fitment.
How difficult is it to install windshield visors and bug deflectors?
Installation typically takes 30-60 minutes and requires basic tools. Most windshield visors use a no-drill mounting system with industrial-grade 3M tape or clip-on brackets that attach to the cab roof. Bug deflectors usually mount using existing hood hardware or pre-drilled holes. The most challenging part is proper alignment and ensuring the mounting surface is clean and dry. We recommend installation in temperatures above 60 degrees F for optimal adhesive bonding.
What material options are available and which holds up best?
Windshield accessories come in three main materials: acrylic, polycarbonate, and fiberglass. Acrylic is the most affordable but can crack in extreme cold. Polycarbonate offers superior impact resistance and flexibility, making it ideal for harsh conditions. Fiberglass provides the best durability and custom fitment but costs more. For long-haul drivers facing varied weather conditions, we recommend polycarbonate for the best balance of durability and value.
Do windshield visors actually reduce sun glare and improve fuel economy?
Yes, properly installed windshield visors can reduce direct sun glare by 15-20 inches, significantly improving visibility during sunrise and sunset hours. Regarding fuel economy, independent tests show bug deflectors and visors can improve aerodynamics, potentially increasing fuel efficiency by 1-3% at highway speeds. However, results vary based on driving conditions, speed, and overall truck configuration.
What styles and finishes are available to match my truck?
Windshield accessories come in several finishes to complement your M2: clear, light smoke, dark smoke, and chrome. Clear maintains maximum visibility while providing protection. Smoke tints reduce glare and add a custom appearance. Chrome options are available for bug deflectors and visor trim to match other chrome accessories. Most accessories can be painted to match your cab color, though this may void warranties. Consider your state regulations regarding tinted windshield accessories before purchasing.
