    Don't think it is sold seperately, but you can happily run your car without it.
    I removed most of the airfilter housing and left just enough to keep the filter in place.

    That means you got the part left that I am looking for? ;D

    Today when converting headlamps from RHD to LHD I saw ice in there at the air filter, so I guess this part I am looking for does make sense

    I had the part, but after moving house lots of stuff went into storage.

    Putting the part on means you can't see the ice so it does help (visually )

    I have one it's brand, new never been used.

    I bought the whole unit from SMC a few months ago to get the lower section, but don't need the upper.

    £30 posted (small packet to Germany, ~ £5) would be fine

    I would be worried about the filter getting wet or dirtier quicker,how long have you run yours without top bit?

    Do I remember you saying somewhere about it producing a certain percentage more power due to being so many degrees cooler without the top bit on?
