Custom air filter protector tab

[Madara]

reviving this old thread but i didn't like the tab hitting the filter either, so i just hung the airfilter with some wire. it's also extra reassurance to prevent it from flopping about while driving

Recently I found out that the clip used to lock the radio box digs into the air filter foam on my Savy's filter and leaves a gap where dust can eventually enter the filter itself:

I double-checked that my air filter was fully seated, and it was. So I thought of a fix:

I took a small piece of plastic, heat it with a hair dryer for a while to make it more flexible, then bent it to a 90 degree angle. I then CA-glued the soft side of a velcro stripe on it to prevent rattle. Finally I CA-glued the tab to my air filter cap, like so:

I hope this tip can help people who still have the stock air filter!

Good fix that bin Avin same prob masen so bin clicking up against radio box button works gud ha be better if I cud actually get the Esav air filter but no chance o that in uk
