After reading the posts on the K/N filters and the instructions page on this website, I've come up with a way to fix the product instead of modifying my airbox.
It's clear that the filter is too thick and pops off the clips. This is especially true with gen1's like mine. I'm going to make a template that molds to the airbox groove and cut the filter. Then with a tool (not sure what yet, maybe dremel) this will put a groove where K/N should have. Testing for airleaks will know how deep to cut the groove.
I want to test with an old one instead of ruining the two I just bought new. Would anyone happened to keep old ones?
