Install guide for Injen CAI?

Is there anywhere available on the net install guides for an Injen CAI for an EX auto? I want to see exactly what it will take before I go installing it. I've heard that you actually have to cut something out below the battery for the filter to fit properly? I'm seriously thinking about getting this intake, but I'd like to see some somewhat detailed install instructions or pictures of it installed, espically around the battery tray and if I have to cut anything. I really don't feel like cutting anything, so this might persuade me to get an AEM SRI.

Shesh alright here we go...... If you are doing this by yourself and are moderately familiar with working with the front end of the car it should take you about 45 minutes to an hour to finish.

1. Remove your front bumper (there's a DIY on this site for it somewhere)
2. Remove the stock airbox (around 10 bolts if I remember right)
3. Remove the battery and tray
4. Take a look at the opening right under where the battery sits, there's a plastic guard here. This is what you have to cut in order to make room for the lower piping. It's not hard, just have a strong pair of utility scissors to do it.
5. The rest is just installing the pipe which it comes with dirrections already.

I'm sure that there's a more detailed thread in the system regarding the install of this, and I hate to say this but SEARCH next time.

Yeah, only trouble I had was I left the adapter to the temp thing on the stock resonator and didn't notice until I went to install the temp thing onto the CAI. The cutting part is pretty easy, just cut a 3-4 inch square for the pipe to go through.
