Strut cover install?

[DA H.N.I.C.]

Probably a silly question, but for those of us who bought the OEM dome-style plastic strut covers................how do you install 'em?
My strut towers have the 3 nuts screwed on the bolts where the covers would connect to but of course they are too big. Is there something I'm missing?

[jmckenzie]

I had to push down on mine until they snapped into place on top of those bolts, it took a little force but they went on & stayed in place

[fargo59]

just pop them on top of the studs

Use a big rubber mallet and WHACK them...............

Here you go.
Hopefully this'll help you out.
Just like everyone said, just give 'em a good whack and the covers will fit right on.

My "boob covers" seem to go on better if I start the single, outside nut first, then push down on the "inside" close to the engine...

I have to point out, though, that I also have the RE Shock Tower Bar, which I had to do a little trimming on the cover to get it back on again.

Todd, if that guy hasnt already jumped on these from ya, I might be interested in them myself. Been wanting a set since day one, but now I wasnt sure that Id be able to get them on with the Vortech because the antifreeze-fill mounts up using on fo the shock bolts, and thus cuts into the room that the cover would need to fit properly. However, with the right amount of trimming, I dont think it will be a problem.

So like I said, if dude hasnt already called dibs on them, maybe I can pick em up from ya next time I go out to Modern Muscle or something..... Let me know.
