Guys with the plp heat shield...Do you notice any rattling with it? Was it very easy to install yourself or could you not reach all the bolts? Also any noticable difference in temps around the intake after installed?

Mine does not rattle.
The instalation was a easier than stealing candy from a baby.
Remove the intake elbow (two 10mm bolts or Phillips screw driver for the clamps, then one 14mm bolt toward the rear, drop the heat shield, use the enclosed 14mm bolt for the front and you are done 15 to 20 min. max including wife's interruptions)
As for temps, no noticed difference in the temp gauge but I guess that it is functional.
It keeps the heat away from the intake elbow area.
It looks very neat, clean and as stated before, it completes the engine bay.
I must also say, that my heat shield is the latest version.
It is all one piece with no gaps or spot welds.
The look is PRICELESS.
