Is it different in mine? Thanks Yes, it is different. The pictured one is for a SVT. The non SVT has the words on the UIM. The non SVT just has the cover without the words (and no holes. I think the holes were added on to assist in the cooling of the IMRC). "Always do the cheap and easy ones first." 1996 V6 ATX 96K miles
