yeah i have the guide saved on my phone now although its pretty simple and cant wait to do it later..
i have to admit yesterday when i went to do it i thought i had to put the one on the bonnet in one of the closer wing bolt holes and i fitted one end to the bonnet and i was trying to compress it to get it in the hole. lets just say it didnt work  :grin: :embarassed:

I still think they could lead to problems over the time, way too strong against aftermarket lifters.
