OEM Airbox Cover

So I posted it in the Classifieds section but it looks like not many people look there.

I'm basically looking for the stock airbox cover - it's the cover that many people take off and leave off to hear that amazing sound of the engine. I checked out myswedishparts.com but they don't sell just the top cover. Does anyone have one they're willing to part with? I have a project I'm thinking of but I need a spare.

Thanks

Why do do you need a spare? Run open airbox until you're done.

I'm gonna give that a try I think while it's still cool out here.

I just need a spare - the project I'm working on might end up in me ruining the cover... I just want to have a spare.

What are you trying to do? You shouldn't need a spare, and if you 'ruin' it, you might be able to 'fix' it, depending on what you're doing.

I'm incorporating a bit of plexi-glass on top. I'm also running another another cold air feed from the grille.
If it doesnt look the way I want it to look I'll just toss it; that's why I need a spare

Re: OEM Airbox Cover (tomedkaz)

I ran an open box when I first got the car, but that was before the CAI I rigged up. It's not as loud as I would've thought, but I had a stock filter on that was quite filthy.

tomedkaz, just do your project for now, leave the box open, and try to snag a spare one in the meantime. I thought of modifying the cover too but was afraid to miff it up.
