Installed mine a couple of weeks ago and they seem to work great. Fitment was great but getting into that compartment was a pain. Thanks for a quality product.

Here is the fix for a loose fitting filter. Thank You to GuffeyP for letting me know the issue!
Please forgive the camera angle, it's a tight fit inside the filter box.
This is at the top of the filter box.
In this picture, compared to the first pic, you can see a gap. The cowl that covers the filter area can be raised a little to make this gap appear.
This is what the filter looks like up in the top left corner normally.
note: even in this picture, though it isn't fitting tightly at the top of the box, the air inlet opening is completely covered by the filter! All the air coming in would be filtered, but read on to see how to make it fit tight.
If it's not fitting in there tight, or if it's not staying in place, raise up on the cowl piece to make the gap appear.
In this pic you can see a gap in the top left corner over the filter, because i'm holding the cowl piece up.
With the cowl up, and the gap appearing, push the top edge of the filter into the gap. Now when you let the cowl back down into normal position, the filter is pinched and held firmly in place.
It's not going anywhere!
This is why I make the filters so oversized. You can tuck the extra bit at the top in the gap and it can't go anywhere. The other benefit is that you can be sure no unfiltered air is going around the sides of the filter, through your a/c and into the car. (like with the OEM style)
Thanks Guys!

Damn I just replaced mine with OEM.. Wish I saw this earlier.. Definitely will give these a try next time
Thanks MAC
free bump
Not sure I take the dirtiest filter prize but it's nasty. Had the car 2yrs and don't know last time this was done
To boot, whoever did the last one did it backwards (insert "you only had one job..." meme here)
Cool product

That's plenty dirty, but hey at least it looks like it wasn't getting wet and growing mold like some of the "top ten"!
I bet you'll notice a bit more airflow now too.
