New grill install

Got my new grills and I can see they would be easier to maintain. But they are much bigger, and DW points out they don’t match color. But I think the new ones would also have less air flow restriction than the old ones.

For those of you that have installed these, did you just use 6 (or 4) screws and mount them over the original vent hole?

Looks like 4 would be sufficient.

Can you adapt Pat Bauer's mod to use magnets and no screws? See Modifications thread.

These have doors that drop down to open so frames can be permanently mounted.

Well DW has spoken... she doesn’t want bigger grills than the ones already installed. So anyone that wants 12 grills, brand new, shipped for $75 let me know.

If it’s just a color issue, why not take a sample of the the ceiling vinyl in and have a matching paint color made? Sherwin Williams and others are pretty good at color matching.
Paint them and maybe they won’t look so imposing....

Having done the simple Pat Bauer magnet mod to the factory covers, I am not understanding why others are buying non matching grill covers instead of installing magnets?
