3. Using a flat head screwdriver, gently pry the
radiator hose bracket from the factory intake
tube assembly and remove the intake tube from
the vehicle.

4. Rock the factory air box back and forth and
remove it from the vehicle. There are only
grommets holding it in, no bolts.

5. Using a 10mm socket, remove the five bolts that
secure the factory air filter housing platform and
remove it.

6. Assemble the Airaid Cool Air Dam pan­els (#2, #3) using five 6-32x 5/16” screws
(#9), #6 flat washers (#10), and 6-32 keps
nuts (#11).

7. Install the air filter adapter (#4) using three ¼­20x ½” button head bolts (#12), and 1/4” flat
washers (#13). Position the Airaid Cool Air Dam
in place of the factory airbox & secure it with
four M6-1x25 hex bolts (#14) and 1/4” flat
washers (#13).

8. Slide the factory MAF sensor onto the air
filter adapter and tighten the hose clamp.

(Note: factory clamp / rubber bushing must be
in place on the inlet to the MAF sensor.)

9. Install the GM coupler (#7) onto the throt­tle body side of the Airaid Intake Tube (#5).

10. Install the urethane hump hose (#6) onto
the Airaid Intake Tube (#5) and the MAF sen­sor with two #60 hose clamps (#15). Install
the tube assembly onto the engine. (Hint: slide

the hump hose all the way onto the end of the
tube.)

11. Reconnect the wiring harness to the
MAF sensor.

12. Press the weather strip (#8) along the top edg-

es of the Airaid Cool Air Dam; assure that it is
fully seated along the edges. (Hint: Begin at a
corner and work toward the ends). Mount the
Airaid Premium Filter (#1) onto the air filter
adapter and tighten the hose clamp.

13. Double check your work!

Make sure there is no foreign material in the intake path. Make sure all clamps, hoses, bolts, and screws are tight.

14. Reconnect the negative battery cable!

Note: Provisions have been made to mount the factory filter minder if you choose. A 17mm hole must be drilled on the back side of the tube. A circular impression on the
rear of the tube indicates the correct location for the hole. Use the factory grommet to mount the filter minder.

WARNING! If your vehicle has a Vehicle E mission Contr ol Infor mation decal a ffixed to the factor y air box, a new r epla cement label must be obtained and insta lled
in a readily visible position in the engine compartment in order to remain CARB compliant. Failure to do so will prevent the vehicle from passing a smog check. Replacement
labels can be ordered from your local dealership. Regulations state that the VECI label shall not be affixed to any equipment which is easily detached from the vehicle. Label
placement, under the hood on a painted surface is recommended.
