Default Plexiglass EGR Blockoff Plate?

Will a custom plexiglass EGR blockoff plate work or will it melt? Or do you have to use some kind of metal instead?

If you dont want to make one yourself, just buy one off of KMS. They are about $25.

I agree with hu. My plate from KMS was $27 shipped to Jersey.

EGR is an exhaust gas recirculation valve...It's worthless

So aside from slowing down carbon build up, do these do anything? I mean, the EGR valve only operates at cruising speeds
