Side Vent Clips

Just bought my '00 Boxster S yesterday and thrilled to find this forum today!!! Can anyone tell me whether my passenger side air intake vent (body part) is properly attached? There is a phillips head screw at the top, but the bottom seems loose. Are there clips that I may be missing, or is the single screw all that holds it on?

This link shows you how to remove the driver's side vent to get to the air intake tube. There are 3 tabs on the vent that need to be pressed in, as well as the one screw that holds the vent housing in. Same procedure on the pass side to remove vent grilles.

If you remove the air tube on the driver's side, you'll get more of that intake growl noise that some people like.

O my I cant believe how much better the sound is even with the stock exhaust. This is a plus for sure.
