Default Air filter help

New guy here...
This is my first Harley and first time posting
I will be getting my V & H big shoots in a few weeks and a new Power commander 5 also I really want to keep the stock air filter cover that came with the 2012 Heritage does anyone have an idea that will work with the stock cover as far as filter K&N ? A few pics would be great

Thanks for your help

K&N RK-3910-1.

Once the page loads, look at the Available Information, then the Installation Instructions. It shows the K&N filter installed with the stock cover.

Not sure if you ordered any of your parts yet. But I know Fuelmoto usually has some sort of deal if you buy all 3 components from them AC/Exhaust/Tuning Module. And their AC will work with your stock cover.

$199 for that K&N. You can get AN for around $135 with a crome backplate.

I've tried several intakes over the years. The AN is by far the better design due to its simple one piece backing plate which eliminates the rubber breather hoses.

Good choice Jim, pretty painless to put on too. Just get some locktite, the little bit that comes with it isn't enough.
