Where in Edin are you? I did mine a couple of months back. Not difficult to do. Dezzys instructions along with the supplied instructions make it straight forward.

it's really easy man, the hardest bit for me was getting the existing air box off the car - mine just didn't want to budge and i ended up fixing it with a hammer

think all in it took me about an hour

Excellent

I'm in Clerwood just around from Queen Margaret College/Uni..
I think i may give it a go myself then - the one on the bmw was pretty easy just i dont want to jump in there and get stuck half way!!
Looks fairly simple apart from the rusty bolt holding it in place

But will see what i can do

Ignore Dezzy's guide it's for a 111R. Just use the instructions that come with it as they're pretty good.

Fair point.
Easy anyway and worth the effort

The plastic 'scoop' you fit at the intake is kinda brittle and can be a wee bit fiddly to position - if you horse it about it breaks easily at the bolt hole

Otherwise child's play

Ditto

but nothing a dob of glue, an odd bit of plastic and a couple of small bolts can't sort.

Really busy at work just now otherwise would have offered to assist but if you hit a problem let me know and I'll see if I can pop round, you're not far away.

) help. I should know (designed the thing

)

<edit> that is... the Cloggies might be coming back to Scotland in September, so I can help you then, just need some patience
