GruppeM Intake Installation Help

I ordered the GruppeM from Australia due to the exchange rate. It came in faster than I would have thought. So, I'm looking at these instructions, and I feel like I'm listening to a scene in Silence of the Lambs, "it rubs the lotion on its skin." The translations are amusing. Most of it looks straightforward, but before I start on this, does anyone know of a good DIY for the GruppeM on the Z4M?

The part I'm a little unsure of is the "rectification honey cam." WTH, man! I know what part they are talking about, but is there anything special that has to be done with the spacers other than just placing the two spacers over the holes and then pressing the metal ring over the metal honeycomb? Since the "rectification honey cam" is mounted to an inclined part, does the orientation of how it is rotated in relation to the screw holes and spacers make a difference? I'm guessing that is what they are trying to say.

Can't wait to get this on and hear how it sounds. Thanks!

Salty

Thanks, dbarton. I have a good understanding of how to remove that part from the OEM box, but not a good idea of how it mounts in the new intake. I guess I just need to jump in and start on it. I'm one of those types that likes to know how to do every step before I start, if possible.
