Another cold air intake question

[howling phantom]

Well, I found a place on ebay that seems to have a fine cold air intake system, for a good price. The link is here--->

But, I have some questions on installation. In the picture of it installed on the car, it seems that the old air filter station is completly gone, along with the box for the clutch fluid that seems to be a one piece construction on my cav(98'). My question is this, how do I remove said airfilter box, and what does that little fluid fill station have to do with the intake system? By removing the box thing, would that effect my clutch? Im a newb at working on cars, but have done a few things, so Im not dumb, this one just seems to have stumped me. Any help?

you have to take your battery out, then its a WHOLE BUNCH of pulling and wiggling, after everythings disconnected from it of course, and for the clucth fluid, you'll have to pull that resivoir off, i mounted mine like this




that "bracket" becomes available once you have that big black thing pulled out

And that big black box thing is just part of the stock air filter system?

Yep complete waste of space.

Bomz is garbage... and so is pretty much anything on ebay unless its a brand name.

you dont need to take the battery out. take the wheel and that splash guard off. then take out the screw on the left side of the black box under there and then wiggle it all out from the wheel well.

that sounds like way more of a pain in the ass then just pulling the battery out

[notaricajustfasta]

yea, but there is no other way to get all of the box out from behind the washer fluid reservoir.

[jakegday]

hmmmm, weird, all of mine came out just fine through the top, just had to remove the battery
