Ok, having spent 3 hours at my dads garage chucking spanners at him trying to fit a new filter i recieved we need to clarify something. is it 100% definatley legal to take the old air pan off and fit the filter straight onto where it went. What do we do with the tube coming off the box? A vacuum pipe or something as my dad described it.
He seems to think if its not connected to the air intake system its illegal and will fail its MOT. He's had dozens of tubes and jubilee clips etc trying to fit the filter onto the air pan where the normal air intake tubes are. (which we removed obviously)
Any advice would be appreciated, pictures would be fantastic as hard evidence against him. I've seen it done and know it shouldnt be a problem
