DIY on installation and removal of Valve Cover
I am having my valve cover powder coated some time over the next week or two and I haven't taken it off of this car before.
I have a general idea of how to do it, and replaced my VC on my GSR but I was wondering if anyone knew of a DIY or could offer some helpful tips/advice?
There is a DIY on 8thcivic but its kind of brief and the pictures have been deleted from the post.

Re: DIY on installation and removal of Valve Cover (dt98gsr)
it looks like I should remove the cowl (the black plastic piece with the windshield washer sprayers) and then remove a heat shield which is below that to get easier access to the VC.
