Abstract
An automotive air intake housing for introducing fresh air into an air conditioner includes a cowl box and an air box through which the fresh air passes, a dash side panel having two openings, one for communicating the cowl box with the air box and the other for communicating the air box with the air conditioner, and a wiring harness passing through the air box between the engine and passenger compartments. Since the wiring harness does not pass directly through the automobile firewall, but rather circumvents it by passing through the air intake housing, engine noise entering the passenger compartment is thereby reduced.
