I remember it Chrissy. The part came from a breakers in the South East somewhere if I remember correctly. All well and good if they have an STI Type-RA available but its a bit hit and miss. If you look at Demon Tweeks' website (in prep parts) they have aftermarket fixed-up alternatives. The carbon one looks quite smart... With a fixed inlet on the roof theyre easier to install too.

A quick search throws this up:

An excellent and comprehensive install IMO.
