Yep, sad i know, but just ordered my forst upgrade for me bog standard elise.
I'm hardly pushing the boat out, having just spent £38 on an upgraded panel filter, but there you go - strange what a day in the office will do to people!
I'm guessing the airbox opens with a simple clip - chuck out old paper one, plop in new ITG, then close up?

Y'know, it's been so long since I've even seen my standard airbox, I can't remember!!!
Reasonably sure you're right tho - couple of clips....
Welcome to the slippery slope, BTW... This time next year it'll have a Honda in it

Yep 4 clips, I'll find my camera....
Vague red circles = clips. Mine were a rral PITA and stuck fast had to "modify" one with some pliers....

Another quick mod that gives a bit more noise (but not the headache an induction kit gives you) and "might" give half a bhp

is to cut the pipe i've circled in white. Cut it at an angle, dont cut too much off, and reroute the original cold air hose to give a more direct feed to the airbox. It's another one of those mods that prob wont give you any bhp, but will go towards stopping you loosing any unnecessarily.

Richard,
You'd better get the Hoover out!
