Will the rocker covers work with all variations of H22?

Pics?

If this has battled with less than 100000 miles, I would be interested but the price is too high. It'll have to be half of that to be worthwhile for myself.

Sorry bud, only being honest. :)

Agreed. You can buy coloured refurbed ones on eBay for the price your asking. I'd research the price of this compared to other items. You'll be surprised there is quite a price difference.

Edit- Sorry if any offence has been caused. :)

Edit 3rd time (for political accuracy) Refurbed rocker covers can vary from cheap spray jobs to up to $300 if your buying them in the US.

And yes they are. I'd change the gasket though to make sure it's sealed properly.

Are you sure you're not getting confused with a Vtec solenoid cover or something? :?

You should try and resist mocking someones asking price either way though bud. If you think they're got it wrong then a gentle message via PM should do it ;-)

Sorry NN, was that directed myself? If so, then apologies. Only stating my interest and the possibility of others being in my situation of contemplation. :)

Sorry bud. My comment wasn't really directed at you. You expressed interest in the cover and only stated the price was too high for yourself... Not everyone on the whole.

Wasn't really having a go at Kris either, but can imagine skyrocket being a little put out if that's actually the money he's after and someone else broadcasting it's well over-priced.

To give you an idea of what some valve covers go for, check out This guy's prices. Yeah they're custom painted, but they would have all started out as old used covers, and how much are a few cans of paint and a bit of practice anyway? ;-)

I edited the comment a few seconds later. I read it wrong assuming it was the spark plug cover. Instead of the rocker cover as you can see I edited it already. Did make myself look like a kebab though :lol:
