Mishimoto Intake Bolts fell off (oops)

I was changing my spark plugs today and noticed that my Mishimoto intake was just hangin' loose in the engine bay! The bracket pieces are still attached to the carbon fiber air chamber part, but the bolts and nuts that used to attach to the car must be somewhere on I-275.

Nuts and bolts are easy enough to replace but I was also using the factory air box rubber bushings. Anyone have a part number for those?

Also, do yourself a favor and check all the bolts on your mods every once in a while.

happened to me as well, make sure the bolts and nuts are on tight otherwise the engine vibrations slowly work them loose.

@Cyril1972 Hmm... Loctite... there's a thought. But would that make it too hard to remove if I ever wanted to part it out.

@gynosis So did you lose the rubber bushings too, like I did? If I can't source them from Honda, I might have to replace them with a stack of washers instead. :|
