When in doubt...I've found that a 10mm socket works on 80% of the bolts of this car

Ooops! You're right! Even the stock spark plug cover uses an allen wrench to remove it! Sorry 'bout that!

Sumir,

My two cents about the Spoon CF Spark Plug Cover. Use the plastic washers that come with it. It may be a PITA to put them in... but drill out the holes a little larger if you have to... but definitly use them. If you don't... you will lose some of the screws... and do what I had to do... buy THREE more screws

As for the size of the allen wrench... go to Sears and buy the Metric Allen Wrench set... the one that folds out to all different sizes. It should only cost $5-6 bucks... if you lived a little closer to me... I could of installed it for you

AND... one more thing about the quality of the CF cover. The quality of the mold is not the best I've seen. It's actually poor. But it does the job, and it is lighter than the stock cover.

Hope this helps
