Carefully cut sixteen cover bolts from their sprue at the point shown in
the photo.
Take the two cam shaft covers and lay them on your work surface as
shown. There are eight holes (circled) in each cover into which the
bolts will be inserted.
Note: you may need to twist the blade of a sharp modelling knife
around the inside of the holes to remove excess paint. This should help
the bolts fit in properly.
There are four spare bolts, which can be left on the sprue unless they
are needed.
Using pliers or tweezers, carefully grasp a bolt and fit into one of the
holes (arrow). The long smooth end of the bolt is fitted into the hole,
leaving the bolt’s hex head visible (inset).
Tip: if the bolt won’t press in, try swivelling it until you find a better fit.
You can use the flat face of the tweezer handle to press the bolts flush.
