Hey

I just bought a air filter for my 1.2 Corsa B 3 door, I need advice on installation now, anyone got any videos which aim at Corsa's (seen a few for different cars on youtube) and anything I should now before I jump into this?

Thanks

Very easy job mate, just undo jubilee clips that the inlet hose goes onto on back of the air box and pull the airbox out.

Should be held in by some rubber grommet things

Then depending on filter just insert it into the inlet hose and do the jubilee clip up and secure the filter, with either supplied bracket or cable ties..........use your common sense

I'm sorry but you're joking right?

Look at the air box in your engine bay, think of it as a Tupperware box with a hose going to it.

Remove the hose then the lid, remove the old air filer, put new filter in, put lid back on, re-attach the hose.

He didn't state whether it was a cone or panel filter

it's just a simple cone, I didn't want to attempt without first asking about it! lol

I no it sounds stupid but first car and it's already got a few things wrong with it so don't wanna fuck it up more! lol

An induction kit isn't gonna do your 1.2 any favours tbh.
