Do not tighten alternator bolt at this time and do not remove the protective film from the Velcro. Lower the Chrome Alternator Cover until it contacts the alternator.

Make sure this area of the alternator is free of all grease or grime by throughly cleaning with denatured achohol. 3. Remove the Chrome Cover. Seperate the two half's of the Velcro attached to the Chrome Cover being careful not to pull away the bottom half that is adhered to the Chrome Cover. Peel the protective film from the half of the Velcro that you just removed. Position the sticky side of the Velcro between the marks that you placed on the alternator centering the Velcro over the recessed black center band. Press the Velcro firmly onto the alternator especially into the recessed black band. 4. Reinstall the Chrome Cover as in #2 and press the Chrome Cover firmly against the alternator to secure the Velcro. Securely tighten the top alternator bolt. After driving your car until it is at operating temperture, loosen the top alternator bolt and firmly press the Chrome Cover against the alternator to further adhere the Velcro to the alternator.
