Help! Turbo Kits,com BOV Spacer install help

Okay-i'm stuck! Ive read the instructions and various write ups. The Bov on the side of the vehicle is hidden under the coolant reservoir. Per instuctions i removed a bunch of screw and moved coolant lines out of way to be able to move the reservoir off to the side. I look underneath and i can barley see the BOV...it seems impossible to even get to it still, let alone see it. Am i missing something???

Thanks in advance!

This is all I can see of the BOV-how do you get to it?

Did you manage to get it installed? How does it sound?

I only installed the spacer on the one side. I gave up on the other side, just couldn't figure out a way to reach it. I even moved over the fluid housing and still couldn't reach it. It sounds okay-but probably would be much louder if both were done. I'm not sure if its safe to drive with only one spacer on?

Not familiar with this but from the picture it looks like you will have to feel your way in there. Get the socket on the head of the bolt and the ratchet in there.

Try giving Weistec a call or email. Don't go into specifics of where you bought them, just say that you purchased BOV's through them and need a bit of help. They might have a trick or tip that could help you out.
