tee em together or something..and stick them on the nipple on the intake... they're just breather hoses...not 100% vital that they're on the intake.... get one of those fancy little small filters for it..

A: the throttle control diaghragm valve
B: Air Check valve
A: uses pressure from the throttle snapping shut to help stop it from closing violently
B: allows more air in when starting the motor
I'd say A: should be def. connected to the intake, and B: could have a small filter. mine had holes for both :)

just tee them off and stick them into one hole. I'm pretty sure TEG CAI's come with the holes unless it's a cheap brand. If not, drill a small hole, tee it off and stick it in there. Ur car will run without them connected at all, but they are using the air speed in the intake which varies at different RPM's, so they should be connected.
