When you go to install that intake, get the car on ramps, take the under side splash guard off which will be a bunch of 10mm bolts along the the bottom of the bumper cover, and like 2 or 3 bolts for the air damn on that side. But once thats off install the air filter from the bottom, most wont fit through the hole from the top so they need to go from the bottom. Also the stock air box has some ducting, one of them will have the head light control module. Unplug the connectors, yank the duct out, get the module off the air duct, then plug the module and tuck it to the side some where. Other than that, it may take some wrestling to get in place. Good luck with the install, I hate all LT1 cold airs that aren't LT1 Firehawk/WS6/Comp TA air boxes or LS1 lids set ups.
