Stock Cai Box

[SLinky-A]

Hey guys, done a few search but I can't find anything on how to open the stock CAI box to change the filter? Can someone tell me how or show me what topic mentions and shows you how do it?

Cheers

Its held down by 4 little spring tabs. cant miss them mate. run your hand along the outside of the box where the top joins the bottom and you will feel them. simply unclip them and the top section should free up enough for you to remove and replace the filter.

Good luck, Allan

Thats the problem, I have unclipped them and the box wont move its like the AFM under neat is holding it down! If i was to take the bottom AFM off will it be hard to put the stock CAI back in and bolting the bottom AFM on? or is there a trick to doing this. I wanna clean both my AFM's and replace the filter.

If you want to take the AFM's out, and remove the entire box its best you start from the top and work your way down. Start by loosening the wormdrive clamps that hold the intake tube to the AFM on the top and remove it, then you will have slightly better access to the lower AFM, repeat this process with it as well. Now carefully unclip the AFM harness plugs, on a 32 they may very well be fragile so take your time and dont break them Now the entire box assembly should be held down by 4 bolts, 2 at the rearmost bart of the box near the strut tower are visible, and 2 are near the headlight, still visible, but u gotta look for them. They should be a 10 or 12mm head, remove these with a small socket set, not a screwdriver as you will half mangle the drive in the head if you do and voila! the airbox is ready to be removed(provided you have removed the snorkel/air intake)

Good luck, Allan
