Unfortunatly its a like HKS, from EBAY, its made by Simota. The replacement filters are 6.99 and the fillter housing cost me about 20 quid plus 15 quid for the silver tube.
It will be for sale for 20 quid plus postage of 5 quid so 25 posted if u want it.

The drop is 40mm front and rear, ill see what pics I can find from the side.

Yeah agreed with the lights 8-)

If the cable ties do they're job long enough they may become the bracket, :roll:
It came off relatively easy, just used a pry bar, socket and a screw driver, didn't need to take off the exhaust or lower it from the brackets either :D
A pita but its done, and no more rattles :mrgreen:

Nice leads! 8-)

That rad looks familiar! My old one went in the same place. Just disintegrates!
