Default Size and position of hole for CAI behind headlight?

I have a 99 DX and it does not have the hole that goes down into the bumper for the CAI behind the passenger headlight. I was wondering if anyone had pictures and measurements of the position of the hole so I can cut through the metal? I know I can get a CAI for an Integra which has the filter going into the bumper at the bottom near the tranny mount, but I already have a CAI that was designed for EX/SI so i wanna make use of it. Thanks

This hole is what I'm referring to: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=754359

Well I don't have an AEM. It's just no-name piping. I believe it is 2.5" in diameter. I just wanna know the diameter and exact location of the existing hole in an EX/Si so I can go out and find a hole saw and get it done with and have it look clean as if it were there from the factory.

hell, just cut it to 2.75, give you .125 on all sides. You could even fill that with a low density rubber grommet.
