Hi guys...
So, I bought a pair of K+N filters for my MK3 GT6. When I took the old air filter housing off, it has those long bolts that go through to the carb. However, when I wanted to fit the new K+Ns there are no holes on the outer service of the new filters to slide the long bolts through the carb, only holes on the backplate, and I can't use the long bolts. Have I made an error in buying the wrong filters? Or do I just need to get some shorter bolts?
