I was bored the other night and had a few pennies burning a hole in my pocket so I fired up eBay and ordered a new air filter. Mine didn't look too bad but I'd know idea how long it had been on the car before it came over so a replacement seemed like a good plan.
New Vs. Old:
Doesn't look to bad, the foam just looks a little dull, flip em over to the exterior side and I can safely say it was due a replacement:
Whilst I had the Air Box in pieces I decided to give it a good clean out and was greated with all this ****:
It seems the 9 likes to eat wasps, there were the remains of at least 3 in there:
I'm not sure what all that white foam stuff does, I assumed sound deadening so since it was full of **** I removed it (accidently as I tried to remove it gently to clean but snapped one of the pins, so snapped the other 4 and ****ed it off) If anyone actually knows what it does then I'd be interested to hear.

Well it's sunny out so I'm off to go and waste a few hours washing the car.
