Default AirBox Quick Disconnect

Just completed a replacement of my two idler and one tensioner pulley(s) this weekend. There's plenty of good write ups on here for that, so I won't repeat what others have said.
I saw this turn-key fastener in a hardware store a few weeks back, and decided to give it a go to clamp to the throttle body. I'm calling it a "quick disconnect" since we're always having to remove the air filter housing to do any work. Truthfully it might save you 6 seconds, depending on how close-by your screwdriver is Thought it looked pretty cool when paired with your existing oil cap and dipstick.

Not trying to start a trend here, but if interested it's on Amazon
Ideal Tridon, Turn-Key Clamp, Model# 5Y04858

That would be great for road side repairs!

it was nice meeting you today Rick.
Stop by sometime and we can compare 996s and you can see the IMS replacement process.
