John,

I'm a little confused... the air box comes out by releasing one clip, disconnecting the wire to the AFM, and loosening the clamp on the air intake hose from the AFM to the throttle body.

Cheers,

Jeff

Does anyone know of a good alternative method to secure the AFM/Air-Filter box so it doesn't move around. That factory mount of the box is an abomination. It's an absolutely miserable thing to get to, and when you need to work on top with the box out - you have to go underneath and remove the shield and then the two bolts holding the box. Then you can go back on top to remove the box and do your work. What a crappy arrangement.

Anyone know of alternatives that are secure? Alternatives that don't require getting under the van and doing all that removing?

Thanks,

John
