What parts? All you need to do is take out the old panel filter then put in the new one

I would have to recommend to anyone thinking about a panel filter, if you want any sort of satisfying induction sound get a CAI or SRI.
And if you want performance, well you're not really gonna find it with an intake mod on an NA CJ.
I had a HKS filter. I found it changed the noise *slightly*, making a bit more of a hiss sound than before, but no 'growl' or butt dyno change.
I now have a SRI and it sounds amazing. :P but no real butt dyno change either.

Aftermarket panel filters are nice as OEM replacement if yours is getting a bit old but personally, I wouldn't bother again on a CJ as a 'mod'.

I did run my HKS for about a year though and it still looks like new. Provided nothing unusual tries to punch through it it'd last a very long time. Plus being pretty much plastic, you can wash it in soap or attack it with a pressure cleaner and it'll be fine.

Just hope nobody gets disappointed about theirs, expecting some kind of miracle :)

It wasn't parts for the air filter I was waiting for. I am aware that its a straight swap.

I was waiting for other parts that I was adding to the car to turn up :lol: :lol:
