Once you figure out their damn instructions - about 5 minutes. I had a problem, but i can't remember anymore.

There is a an "install" in the tech tips section .If I remember correctly you have to push/pull the airbox onto mounting studs towards the front of the car....I about had a heria trying to do this :lol: ...so position the airbox then walk around the front of the car, reach down between the front fascia and opened hood ,and pull it onto the studs. Its alot easier this way and it lessens need for future surgical intervention (i.e.hernia repair) :cheers:

The hardest part was getting that damn rubber accordian type hose off the MAF. Put a little oil it when installing, problably wouldn't hurt to spray a little to loosen it also.
