    Was in the garage for 20 min today while I'm home sick from work with horrid sinus ****.. Installed the K&N cabin filter, plastic welded the broken cabin filter access cover, and covered the "welded" plastic with the K&N sticker. I find it funny how over engineered this engine is but yet how...
