The yellow wire will be your accessory for which you will attach your remote, the orange and blue beside eachother are your right rear, the red and blue beside eachother are your left rear, mine turned out great and sounds wonderful in the hatchback.

Is a Mod deleting comments in this thread???

Anyways my first MOD to my 2012 Accent! I know I know its nothing major but I had to share. I figure it gives me about 5HP from the less drag . Overall I am happy with the look and the radio signal is just as good if not better then the stock antenna.

SWEET!
Looks nice.....does it sit right next to the cold intake tube? Not sure if the stock had any setup to run cold air into it. Can you post the parts you did buy etc so we can follow foot and do the same. It would be greatly appreciated, PM if you like. How does it sound? Notice any improvements?

Yes it does sit next to the stock cold intake tube which draws air from fron grille not wheel well, and I used a 6" straight and a straight 4" that has vacuum tube holes on it and a rubber connection to connect it to throttle body, I will soon be running a tube from cold intake straight to filter, and it sounds wonderful real low rumble on half throttle.and there might be a small difference in acceleration. I highly suggest making a air box to protect the bottom and backside as there are some sharp edges that may put a hole in the filter I'm working on mine now.

Great stuff! thanks for the suggestions

Been looking at
the K&N Apollo CIS (Closed Intake System). It is a universal air intake system (K&N Apollo Universal Closed Air Intake Systems) that should work well with the 2012 Accent. Also includes the tub's to connect straight to the Accents cold intake. Any thoughts on this system? Feedback?


Cheers,

I like the looks of it, and im no expert but it doesn't seem like it would get very much extra air flow by only drawing air from the stock air tube plus im not the kind of person willing to pay $225 for an air filter
