Will 6-bolt timing bolt kit work for my 7-bolt ?

[Dsmj89]

I am ordering new timing covers for my car and wanted to know if the 6bolt timing cover bolt kit will work with my car ?

I don't see how they should differ and not work on a 7bolt motor as it is just screws holding plastic and not having to do anything with the motor.
Thanks guys.

the 6bolt bracket for the motor mount differs from the 7bolt. a 6bolt timing cover will work however with minor cutting!

I might have asked in a confusing way. I am not getting 6 bolt timing covers, i am getting the bolts that hold the timing covers on. It says they are for 6 bolts but wanted to make sure if they can also work for my car ?
I am getting 2g specific timing covers.

If you look towards the bottom of these links, you'll see bolt locations and lengths for both 1g and 2g.

So pretty much 2 bolts are washer type. Is it a go then to get the bolt kit i posted of ?
It seems to be accurate as per the diagram you posted of.

I need an opinion on this.
I snatched 2 timing belt tin covers from a 90 gst from the junkyard, free , and i know the timing tin on the right is the same on all dsm but the left one fits fine, just it doesn't have the 2nd lower bolt provision for the middle timing cover to grab. I know this won't make a difference but what do you guys think ? Should i use it and forget about that 1 missing bolt provision or get a 7 bolt one ?
