Getting access to airbox...

[spyke85]

...without removing strut brace. What is the best way to do this? Could do with giving the Green air filter a clean.

Just pull it out of the way, its easy. Just needs a good tug mate

 

[chillcupra]

It wobbles, so is quite flexible

 

[spyke85]

So just undo the two screws and give it a good tug?

yeah and don't forget to put you fingers in a bag of ice for the journey to the hospital so they can reattach them, i nearly lost three fingers trying to do this without taking the brace off i wish i hadn't bothered

 

[rashcupra]

if you take the battery cover off undo the screws for the airbox lid and try sliding it out from underneith the strut bracevit can be done but i cant do this now as ive got a nice sprayed airbox so cant scratch it !
