I looked into it a while back and couldn't find anything, but you could look at customising a Bonrath PowerRohr from a Golf to the original filter housing

Thats probably the best idea from Josh.

All you need to do is measure the diameters, lengths and angles needed, then work out where the filter will go and stick a suitable size cone on the end.
