Air box not tight on one corner
Hey guys, I changed the air filter but one corner (closest to fusebox) of air box is not completely tight and I can't figure out why. I have changed filters many times before on many cars but this last bolt won't screw in and something is keeping it open. I am going to try again tomorrow when light is out but is there any harm in me driving my car to work with the airbox like this? I taped it with duct tape for now to not let any dirt or rocks in.

I keep pushing the top and bottom airbox parts together at the corner and it won't close enough for me to ziptie it. I was thinking maybe the filter isnt in right but then the other 3 corners closed easily and the filter looked flat and in place when I placed it in.

I believe that the AIR FILTER sits at the bottom there. so, even tho that one corner has a gap, the air STILL has to go over the filter to get to the throttle body.
Does this makes sense?
in short, I believe the filter is still doing its job even tho you have a gap in that corner.
