Only needed it for a short period of time. Plug fits perfectly inside the intake hole, the rubber cover that's supposed to plug the end that goes to the firewall. Was not aware it was supposed to be used on the big vacuum looking drum, should come sized to fit the firewall hole but it doesn't. My air intake I got and installed afterwards brought a plug for the firewall and it fit perfectly. Overall if you're in a pinch and need to remove the sound generator and plug the intake hole of it I'd recommend.
