Local motorfactors will have them.
Do not fit a cone filter to a 1.0 or you will be replacing the AFM on a monthly basis.

Probably better off drilling your current airbox!

Ive got my Viper on ebay if your intrested? Not really a cheap filter, but much better than an open cone :-) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300445493127&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT

I know, but the filter is all I have left. Dont have the box or the original cold air feed hence the low price, & and its obviously used (but it has been cleaned and oiled) Plus its no use to me anymore.

I wouldn't bother! It just makes it sound like a fucked v6 and doesn't go no where!

Or just drill your airbox and get a panel filter? not that it will do alot to a 1l anyway. If i was you i wpould keep it good and clean looking until you can afford to get a bigger engine car, no point tampering with your current engine

My old 1.0 had a pipercross foam filter on it,drove like a bag o shite.
Fitted an airbox with standard panel filter and drilled it.Sounded a tiny bit better,but still sounded shite.Keep what you have.

My problem is, YOUR BREAKING THE RULES
Im not trying to be an arse, but your no different from anyone else and need to abide by the forum rules.
Think what the site would be like if everyone new signing up posted wanted and parts threads in general chat.
