you need to remove the air box, batt, batt tray, and whatever under body cover you have on the driver side. After those have been removed, it should be pretty straight forward how things go together.

LMAO go right ahead and ignore the directions i gave you, and listen to the guy who tells you to oil the intake.

Don't want oil in the intake, don't want oil on the intake. If you need help getting some of the rubber or silicone fittings to slide, use water. If that doesn't work, put a drop of dish soap in a full bucket of water and try that.

ok big probelm...
the throttle body is connected to a hose... that hose has a electronic heat sensor attached to it...
am i supposed to slide the pipe into that hose... or is it going to require me to cut the ocordian (sp?) and attach the metal body to that hose?
... this sucks :(

looks like you've almost got it - don't cut anything, try not to do any trimming, because it shouldn't need it - you WILL have to get under the car to attach the filter to the piping but that should be it... it is a COLD AIR INTAKE, not a "cool" or "short ram" intake, so just clamp the accordion hose to the pipe, place the end of that intake pipe through a noticeable hole right where it lines up, get underneath the car and attach the intake filter... done 
|

so im just sliding the pipe into the tube thats already attached there.. and clamping it down?..
then hopping under the car and fitting the new filter in somehow...
or is there any trick im gonna have to do?

That pipe MIGHT be where you reconnect your BPV (if you had a 1.8t) but I coudl be wrong... another place for it would be the PCV valve or oil return in which case I'm not too sure (unless you removed the accordion pipe - you need to find out which steps fit best... I might have been wrong on the "leave the accordion pipe" statement... take it off, and see how it fits. that circled part of the intake might be where that blowby hose fits... check to make sure!
