Heres some pics. Also when I took the air box cover off as you can see theres 6 relays there. Are they ok to be open like that? Id imagine they wont see water there anywhere just curious if you guys leave the box off. If I cut a hole in the box ill have to buy another box for warranty purposes and don't think ill be able to get the hood on with how I have it setup right now

The filter is fine. You might want to cut the black cover part that goes over the relays off and put it over them. A new cover is cheap. I wouldn't want to get the relays wet. Water can get on them from wash, riding in the rain, or trailering in the rain.

That's what I did.. and I haven't had any issue with the dual filter setup

I think I may just cut it and play dumb or hope for the best if I ever need to take it in. Unless you can find a part # for me? Ive had no luck searching for a new air filter cover.

Yes I blocked it off. Air only enters from the PVC pipe under the hood.

I'd be concerned about water and tire splash coming up the fire wall with the filter sitting under the hood like that. There's a direct path under the dash from the front tires on both sides right into the firewall and under the hood.

I'm going to cut some aluminum to fit the wheel wells for protection and cover that those holes.

Yeah no one else seems to have that issue though so we'll see.

I pointed that out a while back and everyone just said "oh it's always dry and clean back there.

Well I taped a napkin to that little bar in there when we went to the cabin. Guess what. It was wet. I'm 90% sure it's from those funnels and hitting water fast.... Maybe I'll mount my action cam inside there to see what happens.
