Spyder 9962660 Upper Front Active Grille Shutter with Motor - GM1206118

The Spyder 9962660 is an aftermarket replacement upper front active grille shutter assembly with integrated motor, designed as a direct-fit replacement for the Chevrolet Malibu. This assembly replicates the original equipment (OE) functionality, helping restore proper aerodynamic performance and engine thermal management to your vehicle.

Active grille shutters play a critical role in modern vehicle efficiency — they automatically open and close to regulate airflow through the front grille. When closed, they reduce aerodynamic drag and help the engine reach optimal operating temperature more quickly. When open, they allow cooling airflow to the radiator and engine bay. A faulty shutter assembly can trigger warning lights, reduce fuel economy, and affect engine cooling.

Key Features:

• Direct OE replacement for the factory active grille shutter assembly
• Includes integrated actuator motor for plug-and-play installation
• Replaces OE Part Number 23335171
• Meets OE specification GM1206118 for proper fit and function
• Designed to restore factory aerodynamic and thermal management performance
• Aftermarket replacement part — not a genuine GM factory component

This part is not manufactured, licensed, or endorsed by General Motors. It is an independently produced aftermarket replacement intended to meet or exceed OE fit and function standards.
