Painted Tank Covers Install?
Are you supposed to drill thru the bosses on painted washer and coolant tank covers? Then do you use the existing tank fasteners to hold them in place? Mine doesn't seem to mount all the way down (front of coolant tank) against the existing tank with the tape that is provided.
Thanks,

Sorry for not being clear in my post.......
Actually, I am refering to the coolant surge tank cover.
Does the tank cap go on after you install the painted cover?
When I do this it fits fine.
I am concerned that the cap does not go down far enough and would cause a leak.
It doesn't seem to engage the rubber seal on the inside top of the cap. (used a bit of clay to check)
When I tried to mount the cover over the tank while the cap is on, the cover does not fit on the tank properly.
Thanks,
