They pop right out, just make sure you take the ends apart before doing it just to make sure you don't damage the MAF wires, by the way the MAF's and housings are all the same from '98-'02 they have NOT chnaged no matter what GM says!

Rock01ta, I flow tested maf before and after descreen and it picked up 124cfm! My 2001 Z28 picked up .10 et and 1 mph doing this on a otherwise stock setup.Also stock air filter only hurts air cleaner to throttle body testing by 44cfm. All testing @ 20" of water.
