I think there's 2 places where it's attached one that you should see behind the box and the other one is in front of the box to the left.. sorry for the description

take out the battery, remove the bolt holding the fuse block and you will see the air duct. pull up on the stock air box, then pull toward the front of the car. it will come out with ease.

I pulled the engine fuse box loose and the stock air box came right out.

As far as my clutch resevior, My intake came with a bracket that attaches to that ring by the strut tower. AEM also makes a bracket that is like $20. Most people just use zip ties though

LOL I just left mine in there because i didn't know how to get it out ... i assume you had to pull the wheel off and get to it from the wheel well.

I don't think it hurts anything by just leaving it in there does it? lol..

To remove the snake air under the battery(What ever the name you give to that part!!??)

-First you remove your left head light

- You remove the botl that retain the windshield wiper fluid tank

- Remove the wheel and the front wheel inner fender

- than you remove the bolt that retain that parts and the tank together

- put every thing you need back together and Voilą...
