Squeaking/Squealing Air Box?

Quite confused why it would be making this noise, but it continually squeaks at idle, especially on a cold start, and only goes away around 1100 RPM or higher.... Any ideas on what I can do or if it could even be something else?

Any help is appreciated, I did my best to look around but all I see for squeaking is belts/pulleys and such?

First post btw so high everyone :hi:_a_

You are missing one of the two bolts at the side that secures the airbox. Replace the rubber bushes that these bolts go through and rubber mount underneath the airbox itself.

Your strut towers also look badly mushroomed.

In person the strut tower looks fine imo so I'm going to disregard that comment :eek:

I'll do what you said, though. Any specific places for these parts/part numbers possibly? :impulss:
