Default Halltech KB/SB Cleaning....Removal

Fellas I had my CAI installed while I was over seas. I know its time to clean the filter. Are the two rivets in top that keep the beehive in place reusable or are they the type that have to be replaced.

If it is a push in rivet/retainer, usually there is a center cap that can be pried up. Then pull out the retainer. I can't see your type of push in rivet/retainer, but the one I had on my Halltech had a center cap that popped up from the body.

My MF103 w/beehive came with regular push pins. Get a fork under the head and pry it up.
