Default CAI cleaning help

Well, its about time to get the oil changed, so I'm assuming since they usually change the stock airfilter when they do this, I need to clean my CAI right?

Well... this is going to sound dumb but.... I don't know how. It didn't come with instructions on how to clean it, or anything to clean it with... so anyone want to help me out here?

got to autozone, kragens, advanced auto, or anyplace else like tht and buy a K&N fliter cleaner for lik $10.go home remove the filter, wash it out in the sink with and old toothbrush, to make sure u get all the debris out, make sure u use the cleaner in the kit. let it air dry. the stand it on end and spray it down with the oil in the kit. make sure u spray it good. how good is good?? depends, trial and error. but i give it a few pumps in one area b4 i move on to the next one. finally reinstall filter and ur done. 30 minutes tops. and u might want to wipe down the intake tubing while ur at it with a damp cloth, while ur filter is air drying. well thts the way i do it anyway.
