How much are they usually? And doh! I think I just remember seeing them at my local stealership.

Downloadings out I don't have my shop upgraded to 2.0 yet.

Those are the only 2 hidden, or heck to find bolts that I know of.

good find.


Yep!, been there done that. I also snapped an Iron motor support b/c Mr.T decided that ONE!! freaking bolt should go in from another way.

The 14mm bolt that oil and dirt paint black and goes in from the front and into the d-side bellhousing.


And the A/C bracket kills me, I've tried twice and even packed a lunch once, but half way through counting the bolts holes I get tired and lose count.

Good way to get to sleep at night, count the TC cover, A/C bracket and bellhousing bolt holes,
