dumbest post ever.....

:oops:, so i want to change my air filter (92 v6le auto), the guide says to just remove the 4 clips and lift up the top half of the box. the thing is, there seems to be alot of resistence, i dont feel like bending, breaking, or snapping something unintentionaly, do i just have to force it up, or is there something else the guide didnt mention?
also, i could just use an unused circuit from the fuse box to power an amp or whatever (i'm pretty sure i dont have heated seats ), providing i put in whatever size fuse would go with the amp.
also, what would connecting my strut to my sway bar do exactly?

Sometimes you'll have to be a little violent.

Someone had screwed up their car by tabbing the heated seats fuse. Don't touch it if you don't have to. You can get an external fuse box for your amp anyway.

so i could just buy an external box and mount it where ever, where on the (+) part of the battery, or any ciruits would it be best to run the power to the fuse box from? also, i heard that there is a certain part of the car you can ground the amp to so that you dont get any interference from everything else, any ideas where this is?
thanks by the way

From the battery is always the best.

That would be any bolts that go into the body of the car (ie. exposed metal).

Also make sure there is no paint under the screw...scratch off some paint if nessecary.
