and remove the meter from the factory intake
tube.

3. Remove the factory air filter lid, intake
tube, and base from the vehicle as an assem­bly. (Hint: pull straight up on the air filter
base to remove, there are no bolts, just grom­mets).

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

washers (#10).

(#6), #6 flat washers (#7) and 6-32 keps
nuts (#8).

8. Position the Airaid Cool Air Dam in place
of the factory air box. Secure it to the factory

over tightening may distort the cool air dam!

6. Install the 7¼” rubber trim (#12) onto the
side of the Airaid Cool Air Dam.

9. Slide the factory MAF meter onto the

(Note: The factory clamp / rubber bushing

meter.) Reconnect the factory intake tube,

MAF met er wiring har ness, and tighten

11. 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.

10. Mount the Airaid Premium Filter (#1) onto

the filter adapter and tighten the hose clamp. Press
the weather strip (#5) along the top edges 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).

WARNING! If your vehicle has a Vehicle Emission Control Information decal affixed to the factory air box, a new r eplacement label must
be obtained and installed 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.
