Passenger side Vave cover install issue

I got the driver's side cover on no problem. The passenger side one is giving me hell. Any tips on an easier install? I am running into problems at the rear with a bundle of wires. Geez, this thing is a pain!

Re: Passenger side Vave cover install issue

the wires can be forced. Just make sure the back end of the cover doesn't have any sharp edges.

Got it. thanks for the help! I unplugged everything I could and had enough wiggle room to get the cover on.
