the studs have a shoulder to locate the gasket so yeah fit them , and no sealer needed just clean both surfaces and fit it , taking note that the nuts arent done up stupidly tight , just pinch em up so you don't warp the cover

I use Kayfast on ebay. Quality is good, delivery is always very quick and I think the prices are good too, considering I don't have to get off my bum! Way cheaper than B&Q and the like. yeah same here - cant moan and here next day local fastener place is so so ...if you want standard stuff they're sometimes cheap , but you risk em not having it wilcos is worth a look too...can fill a bag up with washers and nuts for £1.99 , handy to have on the shelf
