My Letter to K/N...
Now mind you-all, I am a fan of K/N and have used thier products for over ten years...
I recently purchased (thru AJ-USA.com) part number 57-1542 for my 2005 Dodge Magnum R/T. I found out about your product from the Dodge Forums.com website.
I installed the kit this past weekend and have these comments:
The instruction sheet should mention something like:
Use a drop cloth or some other material to keep dropped parts from falling where you cannot retrieve them. I dropped a fender washer and the twist bracket and had to remove the left side of the plastic under the lower bumper to get these parts.
Removing the air temp sensor from the original air filter tube is not easy. My buddy broke the part trying to remove it. I used a razor blade and made a cut in the rubber tube to facilitate removal without breakage. The instructions do not mention any of this.
Also, the photos on the instruction sheet could be better. They are rather fuzzy from reproduction.
I would like to request a 1 foot piece of the rubber/metal molding used on the cold air box. There is a large gap where the tube comes thru the round hole in the air box. I would like to install the extra piece of molding in this hole. You may consider adding this to the kit.
