Installation
Check out the video below. HTC shown here, but coupe is similar (and easier since it is a few less steps)
Installation Instructions:
Coupe:
(Optional) Fuel Line Relocation
Only do this step if you are finding it too difficult to install your covers, or if you want a little more clearance.
Forward location
- Slide O2 sensor out of the way
- Remove the forward fuel line bolt on the passenger side (10mm)
- Install stud into insert that the bolt was removed from
- Re-install fuel line P-clamp bracket
- Install nut (10mm)
- Re-install O2 sensor into place by sliding it forward on the clip
Aft Location
- Remove aft fuel line stud bolt (10mm)
- Move fuel line P-clamp aside
- Re-install aft fuel line stud bolt (10mm)
- Install fuel line P-clamp onto stud
- Install nut (10mm)
Covers Installation
- If you purchased the screen, place it on top of the middle throttlebodies
- There are alignment notches in the screen that correspond to tabs on the plenums where the TB's bolt into them- 1 on each side
- The part of the screen that has a rubber edge trim goes toward the name plate
- Remove the name plate (2) 8mm bolts
- Install each cover over the plenums and install the 7mm bolt in the front and the 8mm bolt in the back. Leave these bolts loose at this stage.
- If you have the screen, ensure the corresponding edges seat into the notches on the sides of the screen
- Re-install the name plate re-using the factory bolts
- Only install bolts half way and keep loose at this point
- You can now tighten the bolts holding the covers on. Do not over-tighten these, they do not need to be cranked down super tight. Just make sure they are snug.
- You can use some loctite if you are concerned about them coming loose.
- Position the name plate to be centered in cutouts then tighten name plate bolts
