Shaker Hood

I think I am being retarded....
I can't get the black shaker off my car!!
Kinda seems like it's a two pice thing. I wanna tighten it up, it's a little loose on the bushings and rattles a bit. I saw the 4 bolts on the bottom, and the two on the sides. What am I missing?

There are some bushings that stick up through the bottom and I can grab it and wiggle it around. If I hit a bump right, I can hear it. Know how to take it off? Has to be some way to do it...

In looking at the link, I didn't know they were the "ball joints". If I would have thought to take the air intake off, I'd have figured it out...

Are you stationed in VA or do you really live there?

Ya, yer dum lol. two long screws on either side and unhook the ram air intake and pull it off. I have the same squeak and it drives me nuts! cant tighten it anymore than I have it lol, still squeaks. I think in the process of taking it off at my uncles, when I installed my TB, I lost one of the rubber mounts and that makes it rattle a bit. Dont know where to find new rubber things...
