You can do this any way you like, but this makes it pretty easy. Let's go ahead and see if we can just turn this off right here. Oh yeah, super easy. Get this wing that off of here. And if the bolt starts spinning, you're going to have to put a screwdriver down in there to hold the top of that. Hop these bad boys off. Lift with your core. Let's put a little bleach on it. Kills 99% of everything here. Please don't use silicone. Calk comes up so much easier. Look, the channel locks we're going to give is a little tighten pushed in place. Let's go straight on both of these. Really enjoy this cap system by American Standard Ray. This plastic nut that screws down on here and then this lock makes it where you don't have to cut anything. Super nice. There's this down on here and it's done. This already comes with bolts in it. Just want to take this gasket. Now you can just set this right in here. I just alternate between sides until this thing is tightened down. Go all the way hand tight. Slowly open this all the way up.
