Default Help! K&N filter part # needed!

Just got myself a K&N air filter off eBay - the part number is correct according to the K&N website ie HD1499. Trouble is, I went to fit the thing today and it doesn't fit! There's nowhere for the hamcam cover to screw into for example, even though the 3 bolt holes for mounting to the filter backing plate are in the correct place.

The filter's page is here: http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...x?Prod=HD-1499

Can anyone help me here, or is the K&N website incorrect? (doubtful I know)

I'm obviously running the stage1 filter backing plate etc.

Thanks all,

Richard.

The pic's in the link.



The non-visible side of the filter in the picture is just the inlet hole for the engine-side.

I also think I may have f*cked-up here - the K&N filter is actually only for the STOCK airbox, not for the stage1 version. I've been scouring the www to find a K&N for my stage1 airbox but to no avail.

Ah well....looks like it'll be plan b then. [&:]

No worries - looks like I've learned another valuable lesson, ie I should read ALL the small print, although unlike the K&N website, my local K&N shop's website does state very clearly that the filters are for the stock airbox. Only thing is that they're ÂŁ14/$20 more expensive than off eBay. Ah well...time to open another beer - it'll take the pain away.

Could do - but by the time shipping to the USA from the UK has been paid it'll be more expensive than you getting one at home.
