Extract it out go to lowes get another.

Unless that is your only car, superglue it back together after you extract it

Use a pick or two to spin it out

Drive old one out. Find out what size fitting you need. Tap hole to right sized thread. Screw in new part.
Alternative: use JB Weld and duct tape.

I put the stock air box back in already, so I'm mobile. I'll see if the parts department has one that will fit tomorrow, if not I'll go to Lowes or something. I was just so excited to get it in and I guess I was a bit too excited.

At least I know how to do it now so the install will take me 2 seconds.

Lowes has those connectors

Or Autozone and the like

I doubt a dealers parts counter will have that, they are limited to what the OEM cars have and to my knowlege no one uses those style connecters as everything is molded together.

Apparently no one uses these connectors. I'll look online later or call K&N Monday.

Odd.

I'd just call K&N and demand a new air intake kit and cleaner kit if you don't have one already.
