    Soap and water will help with the silicone pieces. Other than that you can try opening up the holes a bit more.

    The drill bit works better in a drill and not with a hammer. How the hell did you mangle the holes?


    Like said use some soapy water to help get the pieces to slide together.

    If all else fails read the instructions and see if you’re doing it right.

    Can you cut some slots in the snorkel tube to give it some wiggle room onto the airbox? If so, once you verify the fit, silicone and hose clamp.
