i would be knackered or bored from fitting the thing, yet you choose to update a website with links and piccies.

Are you the least selfish person alive?

I like to try

I'm mechanically clueless, and there's probably quite a few of us lurking around here who feel the same, so I try to help people as much as possible by giving the information necessary to work out whether they can fit the thing that they want before finding out exactly what's involved.

53 hits so far from 30 unique visitors. The power of scoobynet!

So, who works for barclays, eogresources, ventura-uk, ... then

I can only add to the above. your site has already guided me through replacing the front speakers, fitting PIAAs and installing a boost gauge (though i only went for a single pod). Now i feel confident to try the K&N filter. Thanks for all your efforts.

Flowers you say? Hmmm... better sort those out first.

Cheers for the compliments people. I'm glad to have helped! (blush)

Morrisons, surprisingly, have very nice flowers at this time of year. Take the label off and they'd never know

Nick.

Great instructions there Chiark. How about some cleaning of filter instructions too. It might help, so that people do not over oil their air filter after cleaning.

Hi Wrexy, to be honest I've never cleaned one yet so I'd rather not just quote from the manual verbatim without a bit of personal experience.

The filter comes pre-oiled.

When the need arises, I'll update the pages with cleaning and oiling instructions. Good idea, and thanks for the suggestion
