I think there are a couple around or some have replaced with an FSI cover i believe.

Have a look in the members rides section. There are some pics in there.

Fit the Induction kit into the car and You will get a good idea at what needs removing. It's not too hard, just take your time, use a mutlitool and cut away.  When done, should look like this:-

I did mine some time ago, and have done a number of them for others since as well.
Takes a bit of time to do, but once you get the hang of it it's quite straight forward.
I also used a soldering iron on the side part to cover up the internals.
