Spark Plug cover replacement
Hi, I just noticed today that my sparkplug cover is cracked all the way through, Is there a place I can get them? Like a hyundai replacment part site? Or just search ebay?

heh,.. if they have enough to go around.. one of those is already mine! I cracked my valve cover at the edge.. not enough to leak, but it looks aweful.
If you do not mind my asking.. you tighten that down too much over aftermarket wires or something?

looking at it in the pic... it seems that last owner didn;t get the wires seated in the seperators before cranking down on the bolts... with my wires, I had to grind out the seperators some to get the wires to fit.. next time I will just cut them out.

Actually I think I have one MK3,
I can't rememeber if it's the spark plug cover i have or the cover next to it (on the left), the cam sprocket cover or whatever...I'll check later today (it's buried in my garage)...you don't need the bolts right?
I'd agree w/ tibby01 IF you like the look of the RD2 beta spark plug cover...
Actually I think it's the whole thing (the valve and spak plug covers are replaced on the conversion....I believe...??) I think it looks better myself, but I'd have to wait and see on what the price will be, and if there's even enough like MadMachine said...
until then....there's always Duct Tape
pm me or e-mail me pganpath@mac.com

give me your e-mail I will check next time I go to my mom's house (should be tomorrow)
That'll give Chris time to reply as well (if he'd rather sell you his)...
