Mike - the Euro airbox will not just bolt up to a US car. The connection between the airbox and the airflow meter is different on the US vs Euro cars. If you order a standard Euro airbox it won't work on your car. I recommend the Dinan Euro airbox - it's not cheap but they have a nice aluminum adapter that allows the airbox to work, good quality hardware, and complete instructions.
