larger lips at the bottom and some clips at the top I think.... I pulled mine out when mounting my radar/laser detector unit... Might have a picture somewhere....

cool cheers boys. dont want to pull it out and break it though.
good luck with fittin gyour induction kit. to mount the cone on the pipe i recommend fitting it all together then jacking the car up and taking the arch liner out. piece of cake justa few screws and you have access to fit the cone on.

mine took about 3/4 of an hour to fit. try and keep all bolts as you will need them to mount the kit securely. no need to remove battery either. good luck and get some pics of it when its done mate
