Have you got any more info on exactly what you did to put this together? It sure clears the top of the engine area better.

-edit- Found it: True CAI From Parts Runs Behind Drivers Headlight- AWESOME -in intake/exhaust section

I just got done doing this mod (on my new-to-me '07) I got 2 days ago where the air filter is behind the headlight. Works great and sure clears up the engine compartment. Now I have to clean the engine compartment. I also modified the foglight holders to provide airflow.

Would you ever be interested in selling a duplicate setup ? I am only interested in the tube / maf sensor hole / mount to hold it straight. :) I can then definitely add a carb filter on top.

Well than you Joe for giving the idea to CJ so that it could be passed down to me. Great idea and its a whole lot cheaper and in my opinion better than the bolt on intakes I've seen. I've got about $70 in it total.

Any way to get a list of parts and/or more pics? Nice Job! Kudos to Joe (Yea it's a blower man!) and CJ. This one is the closest Ive seen so far to be worth doing.
