I have 3 questions for you guys.

Mopar Super Center sells this part: "Daytona Style Grille Inserts with R/T Emblem"

Leeparts sells this one: "Dodge Charger Daytona R/T Style Grille Insert"

First question, why does it appear to be in 2 parts from Mopar super center (Daytona Style Grille Inserts) and only one part from leeparts (Dodge Charger Daytona R/T Style Grille Insert)?

Second question, do thety look the same and what one is easier to install?

THird question, are these the right parts for an RT?

The package from MoparSupercenter includes the R/T emblem, the one from Lees doesn't - it's just the insert.

It will fit your R/T's chrome crosshairs.

It's one plastic unit.. Get the insert with the R/T emblem if you really want to give your front end a nice look.. Highly recommend purchasing from MoparSupercenter.

Looks like the regular Daytona/honeycomb insert. Price is about right. They're awesome.

They are awesome! It was a PITA though! I only bled once, and lost one tool for a while! lol. It's worth it though.

A couple of tips for you...

It's about 5.5 - 6 full turns to get the screws in/out.

I tied a string to my wratchet and then to my belt loop so that when I dropped it (and I did) all I had to do was pull it back up.

Also, there is a small area that I was able to squeeze my hand into right over the side screws. I put my hand down in the hole and put pressure on the back of the wratchet to give it some bite. I cut my arms up pretty good but I was able to get the screws out pretty fast.

I used one of these. http://www.chargerforums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=26379&postcount=18

Good luck!

I was able to get a stubby screwdriver wedged in between the side screws and the pieces of plastic. It worked out because it kept pressure on the screw. The only problem I had was I could only turn it a little bit at a time. Minus some sore knuckles I ended up with only one chewed up pinky, lol.
