I was in the process of cleaning the K&N filters for the air kit and thought of adding some LEDs. It's a simple and cheap mod. It might not be for everyone, but some might like it. Here is how I did it.
Remove the air filter housing by taking two bolts on each side o the filter(don't
Lose the spacer from the left side housing).
Pull a bit to dislodge from the rubber grommet( be careful not to pull much).
Using a Philip screw driver, loosen the screw on the back of the intake and pull the hose off, then remove the whole intake housing.
From here, remove the K&N and clean. While waiting for it to dry, go to hardware store and get some 5/16" x 3/16" clear acrylic hose and 4 1/4x20x3 bolts. Stop by Auto Zone or Pepboys and pick up a set of 24 Flex-LEDs.
Stick the led strip on the big air back plate and cut the hose to fit around the plate.
Make a small notch on the black plastic housing to prevent the wire
From being pinch and pull it thru the hole of the housing.
After re-oiling, re-install filter as usual.
Oh yeah, the 4 new bolts have to be cut 1/4". Don't need to use the old spacers.
