How do I secure my ecu after taking out the airbox?
I have the cold air intake and I kept the airbox in the engine bay. I would like to take it out but I can't figure out what I need to secure the ecu or where I could bolt it on to. Help please

If you want it to look clean and factory go with the rrm mounts....you can always just cut your factory air box

Have you used the rrm mounts? It doesn't really seem like there is a place to bolt the ecu to. Do their mounts use the already available bolting spots nearby or do I need to drill?

I used the kfx cold air intake. It came with some bracket looking things but I couldn't figure out how to use them.

I bought the rrm ecu mounts. $49 plus shipping for a couple pieces of metal lol, but I guess I paid for piece of mind and it made my life easier.
