I'm after a green panel filter but nowhere seems to list them for the 9n3 gti. Does anyone know what the part number is for the panel that fits the gti and/or where to get one?
cheers

Give BAZC a shout, on eastside he cant be far away fae you.
Pretty much all the Polo/Ibiza/Fabia airboxes are the same, any panel that fits them will fit the Polo.
The BMC one i've got is spot on, and Barry was cheap

i got a quote from baz for a bmc one but found it a tenner or so cheaper on a website
am i right in saying the bmc ones are oiled but the green ones aren't?

All cotton filters are oiled, if they weren't they wouldnt work. . .

how heavily oiled is the bmc? did some reading and apparently the green is very lightly oiled

hmm appears you can rinse and dab off extra oil anyway so i'll just see what i can get the best price on
so back to the original question?

Bill Brockbank - Badger5 usually does decent prices on Green Filters.
The BMC has been perfectly fine on my car for over 7000miles. . .

cool i'll give him a shout and see if he can do it cheaper than a bmc as the green and bmc appear to be much the same
