Unhappy Fuel rail cover help (which holes for studs)

I'm retarted. I bought a set of fuel rail covers a few months back and have just gotten around to installing them. I can't remember who I bought them from but he said they would fit my car and they were Corvette fuel rail covers. I went to install these using a guide a find online and the holes on the fuel rail covers that my studs would go through don't line up with any studs on the intake. Can someone tell me :
1st: are these the right ones for my car
2nd: which combo of bolt holes should I use ( i know there is another that can't be seen in the pic that has a screw in it.
3rd. am I going to just have to drill new holes?
Thanks for the help. I am mildly retarted (i think )so bear with me.

I had the same problem, I didn't understand how to put them, so I decided to " drill" the Rail Covers and pass the studs..

I have a pic of the Fuel Rail Covers on the computer but I don't know whow to get it on a server..if I can do it I will post them

Did you cut the "driver side cover"?

Thanks for the reply. Could you send me the pic via email and I can host it on my CarDomain site or just view it in my Hotmail account. I didn't have to cut anything because the previous owner had them already cut for his LT1 F-body.

Ok first off those holes in the cover should only be on the drivers side cover, they are used for the plastic clips that hold the throttle cable in place. If you flip the cover over there should be 2 plastic tabs, these go in those holes on the top of the intake. Also on the back side of the cover closer to the bottom you should see 2 metal clips these snap on the studs that screw into the intake right below each pair of injectors.
