AEM V2 CAI & Clear Corners

I went to the AEM website and found that they had a V2 CAI for my car but at the bottom it says manual trans only. Shouldnt it be able to fit manual and automatics? Also, i wanna make my own clear corners but i cant get the amber plastic out of my corner lens. It has a screw to take it off but it is sealed shut. Somebody told me something about putting it in the oven to melt the sealant. Can I do this and if so, how? Thanks.

Well I have put many lights in the oven to melt the seal. It works okay but you have to be careful. The Ideal thing to do is get a heat gun and use that to melt the sealant.

Hmmm the oven method really works.......... I used it to clear out my front lights on my 98 Accord......... and it's not crazy as long as you follow this tutorial that I did for putting them in the oven......... (use lot of aluminum foil)

and everything will be OK and you save few bucks

whatever about the oven, but i heard about the v2, i think its a gimmick, sound waves make the air flow better, sounds like BS to me and you spend $50 more than a regualr CAI. Ask stefan about it since he sells aem intakes.

I want to get a clear corner and bumper lens. But I can't do by myself. Because it could be worse. I need to ask person to do it in the factory to install the parts at my car.
