lol, same here. Top left screw is gone. Had to tighten the other 3 again but they are all popping loose after a few drives.

If you don't have any loctite handy, but share your residence with any women/girls, borrow their clear nailpolish and just put a coat on the edge of each screw (while it's already screwed in). That'll keep the screw from moving until you want it to (either break it free with your allen wrench, or wipe it off with nailpolish remover).

Sent message to AIRAID about the screws and they replied asap and already shipped them for me. Ive had a good experience with them before and still have. Love doing business with companies like AIRAID and AJUSA that are all about customer service.

I've used the nail polish before, and it will stain the box. Just be careful if using nail polish

That's awesome! So to be more specific, is Airaid sending a larger replacement screw or the same as what you had ?

Should just go on the screw head and aluminum cover. Shouldn't be getting it anywhere else. Just a dab.

Couldn't agree more. It was on a Saturday when I was almost finished installing my Airaid intake when I realized the elbow did not fit the tube. I was pretty bummed as I could not finish my install and Airaid was closed. I decided to pm Keith (oops not David) here on the forum and he told me to contact customer service on Monday. On Monday, Keith did a follow up with me to make sure I was taken care of. After placing a call to Airaid, Mark told me he would overnight the new tube. The following afternoon, I received my new tube with some extra goodies and a handwritten thank you note from Mark and the whole Airaid team. Mark also gave me a follow up call to make sure I received everything. Man, with the multiple follow ups, prompt responses, extra goodies and sincere apologies, these guys have their customer service skills in check.

As for AJUSA, these guys sure made my transaction a smooth and simple one. I have no doubt that if I ever had an issue, these guys would take care of me without hesitation.

What a great bunch of folks to deal with. 10's all across the board from me!
