does anyone know of any good cheap suppliers of these?

needed for the standard airbox of an Uno Dos (1.2)

also (slightly related) I am planning to drill a small selection of holes on one section of the airbox, and then fix (maybe glue) a cold air feed pipe to it...

is this a good idea? or an absolute waste of time? :p

I emailed them today and they're awaiting stock, but offered to send me a K & N instead but said I'd wait.

Not sure if it would fit, presume the petrol and diesel ones are different. Best checking part numbers on the site.

Well, still no sign of the Green Cotton from Waxacar, no reply to emails, phone constantly engaged to 4:55pm then not answered after so I'm not impressed at all.

Next step is the credit card company I think.

I had an email from them yesterday saying it'd been sent.

They did call me last week to say the shipment from France had been delayed and if I wanted a K &N sending out.

customer service has been pretty good with me

Knock me down with a feather, the filter has just turned up with Parcel Force, moments after getting an email saying it had been dispached yesterday.

I'll get the lump hammer and crowbar out when I get home...
