'96 Firebird Airbox Silencer Removal

[Bearkat]

Well I just aquired a '96 V6 Firebird. I already put on a 2.5" catback exhaust, but was wanting to know how exactly do I remove the airbox silencer (or even what it looks like)? The insturctions link on the main page is down. Is there someone with pics and instructions that can help me?

Is it the peice that's connected to the radiator support? If so, do yall have pics of it replaced with something else?

The silencer is right behind/under the drivers headlight.

You have to remove the filter box, remove the headlight relay on top off the plastic intake behind the headlight. Then remove the intake and silencer. Detach the silencer and reinstall everything else.

Which piece is the silencer, the thing under neath the hedligh with some electrical connetor on it? Or is it the piece with the relay screwed onto it? Or do I remove both and just leave in the airbox?
