I used to have my k&n filter fitted but took it off when freeing a seased clutch. Now I cannot for the life of me find the connector to fit it back on. Can anyone advise what connector I need and where to get it from?
Main hole in the filter is 1.5"

I can't seem to get it close enough because of the head of the bolt that goes right through the middle?

Undo the top nut of the air filter, then you can fit the baseplate, add the filter after that ;)

I made a thicker gasket using cardboard.

 

Any ideas where I can get the chrome top of the air filter? mine fell off while driving (i think), now im having to use the top of a baked bean can lol.
