MAF question

How do I take the stock MAF off of the stock airbox? They are both out of the vehicle, should it just pull right off?

Loosen the band clamp that holds the MAF in the factory airlid. It should slide right out once the clamp is loosened.

Yea I took the clamp off but it feels like it's in there pretty good. Should I just grab it by the sides and yank it out?

Mine was pretty tough to get out off of the stock box, , i was putting a lid on so i ended up prying it out w/a screwdriver, stuck it between the lip of the lid and maf with a rag around it

I used a heat gun to warm up the airbox opening after messing around with a screwdriver and not getting anywhere, you can use hair drier. Slid right out.
