Need help!

I am looking to redirect my intake. I am gonna try using dryer venting. I want to mount it in the front grill and lead it to cold air intake. But i cant figure out how to do this without cutting. I know people have done it, I just dont know how. Anyone have any ideas how i would go about doing this? woopsy its an 88 gtu.

My intake goes where the windshield washer bottle was and down. Dryer vent tube though? that stuff is pretty big and would heat soak from the engine bay heat quick I would think.

Well if your tubing won't fit to route it in that place, then there is really only 2 options.
1) use different tubing (which you should anyway!!!)
2) route it somewhere else (and use different tubing)
