"You will need to remove the IAT sensor and rubber grommet from the factory air box lid (See Figure 12). We suggest buying another IAT sensor and rubber grommet from your local GM dealership."

I was reading the instructions on a lid install on installuniversity.com and it said that it would be easier to go to the dealership and but a new rubber grommet and IAT sensor, it that necessary or is it easy to take the old one out of the stock lid? By the way it's a MTI clear lid going on a 1999 Trans Am.

Thanks-Dan.

Well, I would just take the old one out and put it in your new lid. Its not too hard if you spray some lubricant on it to help slide the old sensor out.

Thanks for the quick responce, WD-40 or do you suggest another type? I am a newbie on modding the LS1 and don't want to screw anything up.
