hey Best... can you post a picture of how you installed the sensors?
Cheers!

Sorry for the kinda rough pic, it was dark by the time I got home. With a normal screw vs security bit head swapping out the sensor is a snap.

Have to say with the new plugs, wires, coilpacks, sensors, and MAF the Rover is idling much more smoothly. It sort of had a lunging aspect to it.

@Best4x4: Do you have a picture that shows the MAF body from the inside after the screws have been installed? Wondering if the screws go all the way through the wall of the MAF body, and if so, do they impede the flow of air?

I removed the OEM security bit head screws & replaced with #2 phillips head stainless steel screws of the same length.
