Default OEM MAF Bracket

Hey guys,
My CAI came in today and when trying to install it I notice there is no bracket on the MAF to screw it into. I have only had the car for about a month and it appears to be the stock MAF. Anybody know where I can get one of these little brackets (square thing around the MAF with the 4 screws)?

Thanks.

It's the K&N FPIK From AmericanMuscle.

It shows to screw the box surrounding the Air Filter into the MAF, however, whoever had the car before me removed the little bracket with the 4 holes.

I need an adapter like this one:

I tried that exact one and it was too big.

Any ideas please?

I need to see yours, if the person before you took out part of the MAF is sounds like an idiot.

CAI's are not hard at all, they are like oil changes there is nothing special.

I looked at americanmuscle for the buyers pics. and don't see anything that would be a problem. I need to see what you are talking about....sorry

I'll get a pic tomorrow.

I know how to put the CAI on lol, but it needs to be bolted onto the MAF to seal correctly and I cant do it without the stupid little bracket..

See how this has the 4 holes in the corners for bolts to go through? Mine does not have that. http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/de...A18650019.html

yeah I see.....I can't believe yours does not have that, not sure if you can find one or just buy a new MAF??

I'll look but maybe if you have the ability you could fabricate something.
