i have a drop in k&n barely used under 500 miles that i will be selling probably starting tomorrow. all you do is pop open the air box top u do this by unscrewing two small bolts. take the lid off pull out existing air-filter and drop in k&n. you keep the stock air box its a real real easy install and makes a difference lmk if you interest in my k&n

CHUT16, you are making an easy job hard. A k@n drop in filter is a direct replacement for a regular filter. Read your owners manual on how to replace the filter and stick the k@n in there instead of a Fram or whatever. Maybe you are getting confused by pictures of complete intake systems that include intake tubes, adapters, and a round filter? These systems start at around $100.00 and are offered by several companies. Your K@N drop in filter has a very precise cleaning regiment. Make sure you read the directions carefully and follow them to the T. It sounds like you started taking apart the wrong end of your aircleaner assembly. Bite the bullet, read your manual. Good luck!
