Beautiful looking and great quality spark plug cover. Not only does it hide those unsightly plug leads, it adds a serious amount of shine to your engine bay!Fits all Mk1 & Mk2 models, 1989>2000 & all 1.6 Mk2.5 models only, 2000>2005.Please note: This will NOT fit 1.8 Mk2.5 models which have the two coil packs fitted directly on to the spark plugs.

Hi, Just fitted this cover to my Mk2.5 1600. No problems encountered. Purposed designed bolts do not require any spacers. Pleased with the result; gives the engine a bit of "bling". MX5parts service outstanding. Recommend product.

Quick service once again - but same problem as some other reviews. The two adapter bolts are not threaded enough for the screws and i have had to fit spacer washers to hold the cover firmly in position - not an ideal thing to have to do.

Bought this item along with other bits. Usual quick delivery and easy transaction. Worth noting that the included "stand off" spacer bolts x 2 that are used for fixing to the cam cover were not threaded sufficiently at the top for the 2 new provided fixing bolts to screw into them enough to stop the item rattling. I have had this item before on a previous car and this was not an issue. Shame but at this price it should be right without having to modify the fixings provided. Have rectified this now. I also ended up using the two short original domed bolts right at the front of the cam cover that hold the chrome pipe on as this was deleted when I fitted my supercharger. A small thing but nice to have all cam cover bolts matching instead of the two generic bolts provided.

I have just given up trying to fit this Cover to my MK2.5 and there is no way that it can described as suitable for the car so please stop miss leading your customers as it is only ever intended for the older MK1 and Mk2.Editors Note: Sorry to hear you have had problems with this item. There was never any intention to miss lead anyone, as far as we were aware this was suitable for all models up to 2005. We have however checked again with the supplier and it appears not to fit 1.8 Mk2.5 models as they have the two coil packs fitted directly to the spark plugs however 1.6 Mk2.5 models are fine. We have of course amended the description accordingly. In the mean time you are of course welcome to return the item to us for a full refund.

Having finally finished the alterations to my 'pitcrew' i am now concentrating on the engine bay and dressing her up and even as a girl i found this so easy to put on the rocker cover (which i painted too) and this adds some serious bling, if i could sum it up in two words it would be LOVE IT.

Bought this for my MK2.5 and I would be impressed to see how this can be fitted.The coil packs sit on top of the spark plugs, so I think the cover would need to be cut to fit them.Also the VVT on the top of the cam cover on the front left would obstruct the cover, so again would need to cut it.I gave it to a friend with a MK2 :-(And unusually the delivery time was longer than normal.
