Default Removing stock air filter setup?

I am getting ready to install the Halltech Stinger R in place of the stock setup. Does anyone have any good directions on removing the stock equipment? The part I am most interested in is how to remove the stock air filter box. Looks like there are two mounts located in the bottom of it that need to come out to remove it.

Thanks!

Joe

Figured it out. Take out the two torx screws and the box comes out! Got the Stinger R installed! Have not started it or taken it out yet, but will this weekend. :steering:

The stock box has 2 rubber grommets that are mounted over posts in the front end of the car. They're not the easiest thing, but they will pop off, if you do them one at a time. A little leverage helps. :cheers:
