Her is a pic of the brakets that hold the hooks. They were on there when I got the jeep so I dont know much about them. I started to cap the ends f the bumper also. O and I just used some 7 dollar a yard fabric from wal mart and just took the old off and use a spray adhesive to hold the new one on.

just a bit of addvise you might want to look into drilling into that tube and glue a male fitting in there that ccv valve needs suction not just a filter just a bit of friendly advice.

it has suction it was covered in oil when i rolled it and when you stepped on the gas while it was running you could watch it suck the oil back in..
