no, for the sake of your car longevity, leave the **** intake alone

The silencer is only there to reduce noise, however one should probably tape/plug the hole left after cutting it so you don't get extra dirt flying in.

I have jammed all kinds of different shit down into the dash at this point. Hard rubber, foam, started with cardboard and it has only gotten louder.

 

I swear, mine is cursed.

 

I am going to try to remove the drivers vent, then sink a screw into the firewall as close to that clip as I can reach and see how that will work. hopefully I can put the screw right into the clip to hold it in place.

 

it is so pathetic that it has come to this.

you have to put it in specific spots (where the plugs are).

I fixed mine in under 5 minutes. cut chunks of rubber(about 1cmX1cmX3cm) and wedge(used a big flat head) them between the window and dash at 3 points where those clips are, it puts pressure on them and keeps them from moving.

 

sorry, i could have told you about this a year ago-i was driving up the alcan and something had to be done.

I did this too except I just used old rubber mousepads. The best fix I have found so far besides taking apart the dash. You really have to jam it down there, I used a rubber spatula. It's kept the dash quiet for months now, a new record.

I see the same one all the time in the neighborhoods surrounding san jose municipal golf course. I guess he lives there.
