New bolts in. Had it on in a few minutes, things go easier with the right bolts! I like the plain chrome ac so I read you can heat the trim ring and peel it off the air cleaner. Did that and I ended up with big patch of peeled chrome. I guess I'll clean the goo and try to paint the ring

Made this cover for about $5. I think it will be fine until I can get the nostalgia cover I like
