03 RT spark plug cover

[BigTim]

For some reason in as many years I have lost two spark plug covers. I have been very careful about installing them "properly" but they still committ suscide and jump off out on the road somewhere, never to be seen again.

BTW, I need a right side if anyone has an extra laying around somewhere!

Whats the cure?

plug wire seems to be slightly small of diameter for the covers clasp. i added some electrical tape to a small section of plug wire. (r11s, but assuming cover is of same general variety).

Drill two, 3mm holes and run a small zip-tie through them and around the plug wire. Leave the zip-tie a bit loose so you are still able to take the cover off without ripping out the plug wires. Looks neat too. On your RT, this should disappear behind the tupperware anyway.
Zip-ties are cheap so if the shop needs to clip it they will know what to do.

Great idea I'm going to give it a try.
Tired of making the once-a-year purchase.
This should cure it......
THANKS

Now does anyone have an extra right side cover laying around not being used??
