EJ25subie05 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 yeah just use whatever works to keep the cover in place. its not that big of a deal... so you get an idea of what works, those push clips (idk what there called) that hold your hood heat shield in place, those work as well (at least i believe they are the right size) i used that same style clip on my cover. personally i run without a cover (weight reduction jk i just think it looks better without it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibr_adam09 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I took two bolts and jb weld them onto the front bracket facing upside down through the hole. Then use two nuts to the secure the cover in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PearlBlueGT Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 what holds it on in front? Rear ones line up to the holes on the intercooler bracket. What about front ones, is there bracket that supposed to be there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The engine cover provides a seal to force air through there, FYI. I'm sure you know that though!

PearlBlueGT Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 anyone have pictures of bracket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apexi Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I'm not familiar with with the GT's, so someone correct me if I'm wrong.. But is the bracket I circled in red what he needs? If so, it looks like the part number for the bracket is 14094AA210. It looks like the driver side of the bracket is held in place by a long alternator bolt, and the passenger side of the bracket has a bolt going in from the top, seen above the power steering pulley. Can't find a part number for the bolt above the pulley.
