Default Missing Bolt In Air Intake System?

Hey, does anybody know where I can find the bolt for this?

It's part of the air intake on the passenger side of the car, and while everything is pretty solid, it seems like it should be something that should be there...

Pretty easy question for somebody that knows, I hope, because I certainly don't (whether I can just use a normal bolt or if it has some weird specs).. thanks!

You should be able to use a metric bolt and a washer. The only special thing about it is that it has to be long enough to make it through that portion with the rubber grommet. That is the only bolt holding the airbox but you could probably get away with not having it and not have any problems. It has a 10mm head on it.

Thanks, yeah the airbox seemed to be pretty solid, I just wanted to make sure I wouldn't cross thread it because it was some proprietary piece if I tried to fix it.. thanks again for the info!

You're referring to a 10mm head. The bolt itself is probably actually something like M6x1.25x50mm
