They are VERY difficult to install. I put them in a cup of water, put the
cupin the microwave oven, and boiled them for a minute. This softens them up
a lot and "helps" installation. Put them in while they're still hot. Use
plenty of
spray silicone to help lube the installation process.- Good luck.

I installed the tapered side into the firewall from the engine side, this left
thethicker, flat side visible from the engine bay. I asked the list, and nobody
gave me a definative answer as to which way 'round was original.
Hope this helps,
