Securing intake

I just got my MAS adapter and filter (thanks livelyjay ) and had one problem with the install. Everything hooked up fine, except now the filter is just hanging there. Any ideas how to secure it to keep it from moving around How can I make a custom bracket to support it?

Thanks for the Help

buy an L bracket from home depot, about 4 inches per arm, and just bend it so that the end holes can bolt onto one of the corners of the mas adapter, and the other into one of the existing chassis ground points...

i'd post a pic, but i'm at work... maybe later.

if i have time ill run out and take a picture of how i have mine secured. I just used one of those "L" brackets, and secured it to the intake and then to where the old - stock filter box used to be. Works really well, been there for a year now and not moved or had any trouble with it.
