there is a torque spec for the A/C cover it's 33-60 in-lbs... but if you do not have torque wrench for it no big deal to just tighten it snug .... my cover is held on by a phillips screw and I don't torque it.

Sweet, thanks for the info. I've got a torque wrench so that's no problem. I haven't done any hands on maintenance in the past, and want to with this one.

Well, I just went out and pulled the sticker off the A/C and the lower one on the front right of the frame...


...the frame decal came off easy...it's not really that adhesive although it took some effort working it off. The A/C sticker.................................yeah, that needs some Goo-Gone.

...uh, I wouldn't worry about how hard you torque it on... use you judgment, don't strip it... but it's not load bearing... doesn't really matter.
