| Looks much better than the first attempt I saw posted on TGO. The TGO picture looked pretty hacked up, did you get a new latch plate to fix it? |

Holy underhood insulation Tony. That stuff looks like it's about be get sucked into the fan or something.
Anyway, I like that mod, but it wont work on TPI Camaros due to the giant airbox sitting right there. |

I'm able to see them with Firefox. I really like that setup. Clean and stealthy. Didn't you do that with your GTA as well? I hate my ugly coolant reservoir. I wish I was able to something like yours. _________________ Richmond 3.73 posi| 36/24 sway bars | SLP LM2 | Koni's | Ground Control 800/200 | Y2K wheels | Dyno Don headers & Y-pipe | airfoil | BBK underdrive pulleys | Raised strut mounts | Extended ball joints | LCARB'S

right click and hit "view picture" then they will work. it's something new comcast is doing. i am not a fan.but it beets paying for hosting.
i have done this to the GTA as well, but due to the rumblieness of the engine the screws backed out and the washer fluid reservoir fell out. i am looking for another fastener solution. |

Use a bolt with a nylock style nut. Only problem I see is reaching the back side of your mounting point. _________________ 92 Camaro

Negative.
You have to go "make picture public" through comcast now. I had the same problem. I can view them if I paste the link in another window. |

| They make it really hard now. You have to go into your online storage page and then click on the picture and click something like "make public." |

That is the way mine is too. They said that they will contact people via email before they are converted to the new format.
