Step 10.
Check the final tab alignment. Insert the factory bolt from step 2f.
Like the instructions say, insert the factory 5/8" bolt.
Step 11.
Insert the push in tab to secure the bottom mount. Attach rubber edge trim to the heat shield opening.
Like the instructions say at this point, don't tighten any of the hose clamps up just yet. The "push tab" they talk about is the black rivet that comes with the kit. I can only assume it pushes into the hole because I never was able to. DEE DEE DEE!!! I dropped it in the engine bay. As you fellow SRT'ers know theres a cover that goes under the engine. I didn't feel like jacking up the car so I just used a Galvanized nut and bolt I had laying around. (See pic 11. below) It worked fine.
After that slide or press the 10" weather stripping onto the edge of the heat shield. You can use some Gorilla snot at this point to help. I did and slid it across. (See pic 12. below.)
Step 12.
Insert rubber mount and tighten with flange nut and washer
(See pic 13. and 14. below.)
Again! Don't be a moron like me and drop anything. Be careful! Mount the rubber bushing on the side of the black metal box and tighten nut and washer on the inside....Nearest to the power steering reservoir. It takes a 1/2" socket or wrench for the nuts. (See Pic 15. below.)
*INSERTED STEP*
The instructions leave this step out so I had to come back and edit it in. There is a 12" piece of weather stripping that you need to add to the inside of the hole on the heat shield in pic 14. See pic 23. at the end of post #5 down below.
