Removal instructions for DDM CAI

Got the DDM CAI and a 15% pulley installed by Grassroots Garage at this past MOTD, but have decided I don't like the sound and want to return to stock. Are there any instructions for removing it that I can download or that someone can give me? Since I didn't install it and didn't watch it being installed I don't know the procedure. Keeping the pulley. I will sell it on here once I get it out. Less than 1000 miles on it.
TIA!

Since you already bought the intake you can reinstall the plastic fire wall piece and keep the intake. That will definetly quiet it down. That's what I did on the girlfriends car and she loves it now. She thought it was too loud before.
If that doesn't work you can still remove the whole thing. No loose option.

Miniguru, do you have any photos or instructions to replace that plastic firewall piece? That sounds like my simplest, best option.

Never mind. I figured it out. Found some installation instructions and between following those in reverse and looking at it I replaced the firewall part and it is quieter. I will try it for a while and go back to stock if I want to sell the DDM or it is still too loud.
Thanks all!
