Need Help Changing Air Fitler
I did a search on the form, but can't seem to find the DIY instructions on how to install an air filter on the 997. Just got a new BMC and would love to get it installed this weekend. Any help is much appreciated.

Lessons learned on the DIY
It's a pretty simple DIY, but two things gave me trouble: Lining the two halves back up to ensure a good seal was a bit tricky - but important to do. Also, be real careful when seating the airbox back into the car. The airbox has two guide posts on the bottom that snap very easily if they aren't lined up with the corresponding holes. Have fun!
