So im a noob at cold air intakes i guess.


Idk how to change the air filter. Im almost positive its the stock piping but how do you change it if you cant see the bottom?

i searched and still no answers someone tell a noob how to change it.

I simply wanna put a K&N air filter over a fram or whatevers in it in it


thanks

 

take out the headlight/ headlight bracket

 

Or you can take off the tire and unscrew/pull back the wheel well lining.

 

both are good suggestions and either or will work for you

 

so whats the easiest thing to do.

Cuz honestly i dont want to talk apart my car and not be able to fix correctly.

headlight seems a bit easier am i right?

 

correct take out your headlights/headlight brackets

4 bolts cant go wrong 12mm i believe

 

que pasa?

 

But then you might have to aim them again lol

 

true it wont be off by that much tho ... just slightly if any

 

I have always done it the way I suggested. I guess its preference though.

 

I've taken my headlights and brackets out a few different times and I havent had to re-aim them yet.

 

yeah but if hes unsure about doing this... jacking up the car and taking the wheel off done improperly can go real bad as opposed to having the headlight be slightly off...

just remember everybody isnt and expert on the lil things that alot of people take advantage of knowing

 

yea like i said its preference lol

 

I work at a tire shop haha and i would do it there but my car is too low to fit on the lifts...

and my jack wont fit either..

Headlight it is. I would have no problem trying to do this on any other car but being my cobalt i dont wanna break something and have to not be able to drive

haha i know alot about cars too damn..

I seem like a super noob lol

apologies everyone

 

its all good ... if you never asked any questions then ud never know all the ways to do something / prolly do it wrong... nobody wants that

 

lol thats why i asked


I would cry if i broke my car.. and then my girlfriend would bitch me out for like 2 weeks saying i should have went to the dealer for them to do it

 

thats really all that matters, im sure its out there but you searched... instead of loggin on and going under car audio and asking hey guys how do i change the filter in my cobalt
