Well the first pic of the unplugged sensor, that goes into your air intake hose. Looks like you have the 4 cylinder engine so it goes into the curved rubber hose that connects to your air box.
Second pic of the tube thing, I don't know.
look at these pics, you can see where that plug goes, at least before I changed to a different air intake setup.

That plastic piece is a water drainage tube for the pre-filter section of your intake that runs through the fender

No its not!! Thats a battery acid drainage tube. Its attatched under the battery to the subframe..it looks like a square cut out of the metel and that little tad slides down in there.. Trust me its a battery acid drainage tube

Hmm, I could have sworn that came off my intake tube when I pulled it out, but now that I look again, there isn't any way to attach it to that. I don't know that it's for battery acid though, cause if you're battery is leaking enough to utilize it, you've got bigger problems...maybe just to drain water that finds it's way to the battery.

My thoughts too. Well, the battery comes out easy enough. Should be able to see how the battery holder looks and see if there is a spot where said little tube mounts in... Weird... I get a funny little feeling when I read that back... LOL!
