Shouldn't be too hard. Judging by the amount of hardware involved, it looks to be extremely easy. Might have to remove a resonator of some sort below where the stock intake sits.

Normally I would bash you for asking how to install an intake, but it is a newer accord, and you are a dumbass.

not too hard, it'd take ya a couple hours. not sure if instructions are included so ill tell you what the hoses are for: one is for the coolant and the other an emissions hoses, it basically runs from the engine head to the intake.

you may need some stronger clamps, as the clamps that it comes with are crap. Do the install with someone who knows what their doing, youll learn better and feel more secure after the job is done.

Are you kidding me? I'm amazed...I really am. I could have sworn he said he was getting it installed. Which in his case would be the best way to go.

Better quality ones. Those will break. The metal is most likely of inferior quality.

Installing an intake is very very easy. Just take out the stock one and put in the new one. Not much difficult. Just before you start look at how the stock one is setup just to give you an idea of which way yours is supposed to go.
