Headlight Rings, Headlight Screens and Half Covers - Scalia-Motorsports

[@afknine]

your channel is the go-to when it comes to mods and lessons learned. Thanks for continuing with what you put out. Excellent!

[@randymorrow1707]

Dude, I was looking everywhere for information on Merrick or Scalia. You nailed it in this video. I’ve bought from Scalia before and was satisfied but didn’t know which company to buy from for rings (most videos on KZbin feature merrick) and your video nailed it. Just purchased my Diablo rings from Scalia (torred to match my R/T grill badge) and can’t wait. Your input on the passenger side headlight not needing to remove the piece in the middle of the headlight in order to install the ring is what sold me. Thanks a lot!!! This will make my car look great. Your videos are the best!

[@WorkPlayDrive]

Thanks for the feedback I’m glad to help. Both companies are awesome so focusing on the differences was my goal.

Just ordered a pair from Scalia M/S. I did one with an R/T screen (front) to cover my open headlight from the Hellcat lower airbox mod I did over the summer. Thanks for another great Idea. Even got 5% off. Thanks

Thank you and my apologies to your wallet 😂

@@WorkPlayDrive not a big hit to the wallet at all and glad to purchase items from a small USA based vendor. Great customer service and fast email reply’s Now I have something covering the open headlight from the Hellcat air box mod. Still doing all back to keep my stealth look.

Nice and I agree Anthony is a good guy👍

[@trevorb3521]

how is the cleaning out debris on the screens that are at the back. Thats kinda why I like the screen up front for cleaning.

[@WorkPlayDrive]

Never really had any debris other than a leaf I reached in and grabbed.

New challenger owner here! Thanks for the video!!! Love the shorter rings as I’d like to also add LED strips in tubes as well. Any pics or videos of that look: lights with rings? Thanks for a great video!

Thank you. I’ve got a video on lit inlet tubes here kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6vUdpxtirV3o7s

Wow quite the offering might have to swap mine out from another manufacture these look great. I'm running both screens on the front I really like the plug for the passenger side for my Scat what a great idea. Like what your doing to your ride looking sharp.

[@WorkPlayDrive]

Thank you!

[@mpossjr]

I purchased the anodized purple Merrick rings a while back and I love 'em! They are still in perfect condition and look great on my Go Mango Shaker. I also have the Hellcat headlight intake but I had people tell me that part of my headlight was missing. lol After watching this, I think I'm going to add the "headlight/intake grill" to the back of the inlet. Keep up the vids!

[@WorkPlayDrive]

I had the same issue with my 2015 people kept telling me my driver side headlight was broken :D

[@tailhappyproductions3787]

Love your videos. I had a Scat Pack and like you just upgraded to a used Hellcat Widebody. I'm more visual mods than power so appreciate your content.

[@jeffsmystic]

So the Diablo rings are the largest diameter with the sticky tape around the shorter inlet barrel? That's what you have been using?

[@WorkPlayDrive]

Yes and these are the ones I have been using.

[@jeffsmystic]

@@WorkPlayDrive perfect.

[@darkside7802]

I ordered Merrick’s. Idk if my headlight intake cap comes out. I’m not near my car. I own a 2021 SXT. I can’t find the answer anywhere online.

[@WorkPlayDrive]

Doesn’t the 2021 come without the caps?

[@wrenchead28]

So on your drivers side do you have the Hellcat tube on with the screen inside the tube? Or is the screen not usable with a Hellcat tube?

[@WorkPlayDrive]

The screen is usable with the airbox tube, you just need to pop the lower airbox and tube to install. The whole process takes less than 5 minutes to install.

[@jeffreynye3019]

So, I take it these are removable? Not taking the 3m tape off?

[@WorkPlayDrive]

Yes you can remove them if needed

How do you get the passenger lid with drain? It's no on their website, it looks really nifty.

I didn’t get my parts yet but was wondering How do I use a block off plate on the one side that’s open to the air cleaner ? I can’t block that off .. can I ? On the passenger side there’s a cap which I know I can remove and install block off plate just not sure about driver side.

[@Mopar_JJ]

I should have bought those covers/screens over Merrick’s.

[@respond_code3]

One of your best videos yet (for the idea it gave me). When i saw some of those were 3D printed I thought Ohhh!! Maybe I should open autocad and just make one. Decided to check if someone already did first. Sure enough!! Found the file to print the intake rings but someone else uploaded a file they designed to 3d print these caps that are convex with the mopar logo. They pop in the air intakes. Also someone tossed up a file for a phone holder pro clip. I need that too. I should upload the mount I designed for the X9 throttle controller. Although I cant imagine a lot of people who be looking for that. Looks like I'm firing up my 3d printer in a minute. Edit: Lmfao. So printing started. Looks like it'll take 1 day 2 hours and 42 min for both rings. But that's because the print includes a optional back piece I'm printing to catch water. And those are huge.

[@mpossjr]

I'd be interested in some of that 3d printed stuff!

[@respond_code3]

@@mpossjr head to www.thingiverse.com and type in challenger. You'll find a ton of 3d printable files. Personally the only 1 I designed was a mount to hold my x9 throttle controller.

Hey Workplaydrive, I need a favor man, I would like you to make a video on cleaning the widebodies engine bay the right way I’ve pretty much purchased If not everything most of all the items you’ve posted and just ordered the SRT center caps and the engine bay painted kit from Scalia but I’ve been hearing a lot of different ways to clean the engine bay but Ive learned pretty much everything from you about the challengers and I’ll like to keep it that way 🤷🏾‍♂️ thanks Bud, have a bless day

[@WorkPlayDrive]

My engine cleaning video would be pretty boring. Every time I wash the car I use the water that gets under the hood and about three or four fresh microfiber towels to wipe down the engine. No products no cleaners just water runoff from the car wash and soft microfiber towels.

[@moparjack3442]

Work Play Drive ok thanks,I was looking into some type of engine dress up or something that’ll have it with a little shine but been scared to spray the engine down with water, Ive heard it’ll mess up electrical or something idk but would you say just cover up the alternator and it’ll be ok to spray the engine bay down? But anyway man i appreciate you and your videos and I always get on just to see if you posted anything new, I was telling me wife about your Hellcat Widebody and that you had a Scatpack first and I think ima go head and pay this Scatpack off and go for an Hellcat as well, do you really really feel a difference?

Thx for the really nice video. I was hoping you'd pick up the 1st one 1st column in the box farthest to passenger side, and you never did explain that one. All looks good, but my hardest is screen position. I would like the posterior position, but I would think it's harder to clean than being up front.

looks like a nice product, just too ricer for my taste though.

[@inspectz13]

rock crawler how is this ricer if i may ask, its a guard so crap doesnt get through the opening on the light

[@rockcrawler3119]

Roman Serna Anything that will not pass thru it will not be an issue anyway. Just more cheap plastic for looks, that really provides zero benifet to the car. Just gived me the ricer lets bolt useless stuff on our car look. looks like a quality part, but just not something I would ever put on my Hellcat. To me it cheapens the look of the car, but I only own my car. Everyone else is free to bolt whatever they like to their cars. All that orange stuff makes the car look like a girl with pointless tattoos. I like a clean look, but again just my opinion. yours may be 180 of mine and that's cool😉.

yep it's an awesome color combination.

[@keithwilliams2766]

That's the beauty of Destroyer Grey. You can use about any accent color, and it will look great since the grey is considered a neutral color. I think the orange works really well in this combination. I've got an Octane Red Scat Pack, so I have to be careful not to create an awful unappealing color combo. I may just have to go with anything close to Octane.

[@WorkPlayDrive]

Congrats Octane is an amazing color. For the rings Scalia Motorsports is doing color match so you should be able to get octane red color match.
