I got mine, but haven't a clue how to install it yet; I'll have to ask some of my car buddies if they'll help me with it and I don't have a torx/hex screwdriver that will work with it so yeah... and its been raining so the C5 hasn't/isn't gone/going anywhere but I don't have a lot of space in my garage yet to really do anything with it while its in the garage as I'm still trying to organize it but I can't when it rains or when I have a ton of other things that need to get done (since I only drive in dry weather except the 2-3 miles around my home I don't go far unless there's no rain with my DD but with my C5 always dry weather)
I'll have to wait and see when I can get it put on. |

Another potentially dumb question... for threaded cans, like the Elite, should I be concerned about the cap staying tight? Mine has been solid, but I wonder about thread wear, oil on the threads after emptying, and expansion/contraction from thermal cycles... what life are these designed for? What would happen if the cap did fall off while driving? Personally, I'd like to see some kind of anti-rotation feature in the design.

Of course all the components on my C5 look different than my Honda's components so I am not even sure what some things are until I can get somebody who knows to go through it with me. |

I will say this. Before I installed mine. I made the mistake of seeing how the cap "spins" freely on the can. Its was going great too. Spins real nice on and off. Till the damn thing spun tight HARD. It took some cloths, and 2 pairs of big channel locks to get it open again. UGH....i really though i may not get it. So now......a nice hand tightening and it will NOT come off |

Had this happen once on an Osh-Kosh truck we use. Used an oxygen sensor socket to just loosen it. YMMV
