   Hey all,
   
   I recently bought a replacement K&N panel filter for my 53 plate VTR, i came today and wont go in, i took the air box out and the standard filter is kinda square whereas the one they have sent is rectangle.
   Here's the one i ordered...

   Looks like the listed cars from K&N is a bit fucked.
   
   The ebay ad seems to be for the valver.
   
   You want the second one.

   Ah i see, well my VTR is a 53 plate so i would presume its a 2003 model.

    But your VTR doesn't have 16 valves.
    
    Like I said earlier, The list from K&N looks wrong to me.
