Air Clean inserts

Hi,
I ordered the HD stage 1 high flow air cleaner for my bike today so I can get the download for better performance. Now I'm looking for a cover as they don't come with one. HD said to look for a Twin Cam air cleaner insert. Any idea's, what are other people using? The HD stage one is exactly the same as the Arlen Ness stage 1 for fitment. (so HD told me).
Can anyone suggest any.
Thanks

I hope that will be helpful to you: check websites like DennisKirk.com, Debrix.com, J&PCycles, etc. for inserts...they have many styles, many styles and fitments.

For the SE Stage I filter kit, (new filter & new backing plate), you simply re-use your stock filter cover. I hope they didn't just sell you a filter. The HD Stage I is not the same as the Ness stage I for fitment. The SE is the same shape as your stock filter, paperclip shaped, and the Ness is round.

This is a brand new product, its a stage 1 with a round air filter, won't fit stock filter cover (which I don't want anyway). I went with this over Arlen Ness as they had one in stock and price was the same. Just wasn't sure if there were other cover choices other than what HD offers for the twin cam insert.
