So which filter is that for?

Dopey · Sep 27, 2017

The vent on the bulkhead for the air filters

SpanishTony · Sep 27, 2017

Plenum filter

Swap your wiper arms over Dopes. The twisted one goes to the O/S not the N/S.

pond filter from your local garden shop

Same here. Crap stuff. Need to think about something different, maybe stainless steel mesh or nylon.

I imagine the foam is to remove nasties from the air coming in to the car

Wazzajnr · Sep 28, 2017

Should the pollen filter not be doing that anyway?

Yep seriously. O/S, drivers side, has twist in it to place blade square to glass. N/S, passenger side is straight. They are different part numbers.
