3 - 15 INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS 2006 P olice Uptter’ s Guide
VEHICLE UNDERBODY
BELL Y P ANS
The Dodge Charger and Magnum are equipped with 6 underbody shield panels. Removal of these panels may alter the
vehicle functions and is not recommended.
SKID PLA TES
Additional skid plates can obstruct the air ow under the vehicle and may alter the vehicle functions.
DRIVESHAFT CLEARANCE
Always consider the clearance between the underbody sheet metal and the driveshaft when installing any equipment in
the driveshaft tunnel area.
FRONT GRILL AREA
FRONT BUMPER
If the front bumper and bumper mounting system are removed temporarily , reinstall the front bumper and bumper mount-
ing system in accordance with the instructions provided in the 06 Dodge Charger and Magnum Service Manual. The
front bumper and bumper mounting system cannot be replaced with parts other than OEM. The crash sensing of the
front airbag systems is tuned, in part, to the front bumper . Retain the original front bumper system (beam, brackets
and fascia). Modications, deletions or additions to the front bumper (i.e. pushbars, bullbars, bumper -mounted bicycle
racks, etc) are not recommended as they may change the crash sensitivity and protection of the frontal impact inatable
occupant restraint system.
Reduced air ow through the radiator grille could put additional strain on the engine cooling system, reduce the engine
performance, and shorten the operational life of related components.
HEADLAMPS MOUNTING CROSSMEMBER
The headlamps mounting crossmember is a critical component of the body structure and cannot be replaced with parts
other than OEM. No drilling or any other modication of the headlamps mounting crossmember is permitted. Any mod-
ication including welding or drilling of the headlamps mounting crossmember may reduce its strength and alter its
intended deformation in event of a vehicle crash.
