what i did was where the two holes are cut (above the battary and the canister) my friend and i came up with some simple ideas.

1) we used a drillpress and a hole saw to cut sheet metal to cover the hole. Then Bondo to make it stick and look flush.

2) Drilled out behind the vents. Theres the back wall and a air dam inside of it and drilled a few large holes in a line. We didn't want to cut it open because that would affect the integrity of the hood.

Now the air blows right onto my air cleaner, but now it gets dusty extremely fast. When I get a chance I'll take pics and post them.

Or you can buy something from here .... http://www.ramairbox.com, but I prefer the cheapy way.
