A light Rival engine plate for the Volkswagen vans — for owners who want the engine shielded from stones and mud off unsealed roads without planning to take a van onto rock.

3.0 mm aluminium. Rival specifies an aluminium panel, 3.0 mm thick, silver finish. Aluminium at this thickness means little mass added at the front of the vehicle, which is worth something on a van that is already carrying a load.

Installation. A fitting kit is included.

Fitment. Volkswagen Caravelle, Multivan and Transporter across the ranges listed by Rival: 2003-2009, 2009-2015, 2015-2019 and 2019-2024 (Transporter to 2022). The catalogue name specifies the 2.0 l diesel, while Rival's technical description refers to all engine versions from 2003 onwards.
