The OEM panels have small pads on the bottom corners, and I had to drill out holes to attach them to the chinese ones.
When you go to change them, you will have to remove the cabin air filter box, so it might be a good time to change those out as well.
I was afraid that I would have to replace that whole portion of the front airbox, but it looks like it's only ~20$.
I also removed the whole airbox to check for leaks on the engine, and found that whoever had it apart last had not installed the clips right, so hot dirty air was getting sucked in behind the air filters....
