Well, for starters, pop the wire harness out of this piece, then throw it away

next move on to here
https://mustangforums.com/forceddown...le=1%3B2219389

place another silicone coupler onto the end of that pipe

then mate the round enf of your MAF with it

If you do not have the screws which attach the MAF to the lower section, then you need to go buy some

Will that connector fit through that hole? or is that a rubber grommet?

I would have loved to help, but my car had the CAI on it when I bought it so I'm not sure about the stock airbox? Anyway, Adder gave some good detailed instructions.
