Just bought one of the airboxes last Sat. Cost AUD$385. They may be around
cheaper but I didn't bother looking. The instructions say "Note: If A/C
fitted the metal tubing can be bent gently out of the way of hole and airbox
with hand pressure, before drilling hole." I don't have air but I presume
that refers to the tubing that runs along the firewall.
