I too built mine with the all metal tire valve. Re: holding valve in
place for assembly. In hindsight, I bet that if the valve had a piece
of  stiff wire wrapped around it, one might fish it into the hole. I
barely got my fingers in to hold valve in place.

I used RTV sealant instead of O rings. Works fine.

Anyone confirmed if the "Help" GM MC cap actually fits? (as per the
BMW write up)
