Also be careful when you remove the old as, cause I know someone that dropped some of his in to the engine and it blocked the oil pump :s (but it was a cork one) | |

You can get them brand new for a couple of quid - got mine for 2.68+VAT, just do as topshot said, take off the bolts, remove the old one, and clean up the rocker cover and base and slap the new one on as obvious!:thumbs: | |
