Yeah i just put one on off ebay. it seems ok except for the grommet they give you for the air temp sensor won't work, so i just used some sealant to make sure i had a good air tight seal. i got one of the ones with the k&n filter but thats up to you.

When you installed it, what happens with the electrical connection on the factory filter housing, does it stay functional? How much of the factory system has to be removed? I saw them on E-Bay, is your K&N filter exposed on the end of the intake tube or is in in a chrome housing?
