i wedged some rubber stoppers from Home Creepo in the holes, installed from the bottom up so there's no chance of moving inward.

Using a measuring caliper, I got the size of the hole and went to the local hardware store. They had plastic plugs in the same spot where they sell cabinet handles, knobs, and the like. They were 40 cents each.

I super glued them from the outside and used non-silicate sealant as to not screw up any sensors that read the air.

Good luck

i used the section of hose that i cut off. stuck one end up into one hole, and the other end up into the other hole so that (inside the airbox) it looks like it was originally.
