Alright. I had the same problem. I've got a 3W 106 QS. At first I snapped on the plug caps after the cowl was on. Now though, I leave one muffler off until the cowl is on. I have enough room to bolt it on through the cowl. I turn the cowl up about 45 degrees to get over the plug caps, then push it all the way on. I place the muffler in the cowl and bolt it on. I usually leave the left muffler till last.

Hope this helps!
