Waiting to have more miles on mine before I replace the filter. But I've heard good things about the pipercross drop in filter.

There is no Delete there for me unfortunately, just Report and Edit. I ll do a search in the meantime to see what other topics there are, thanks.
It will be eventually. I believe you have a certain number of post you have to hit. 36 I believe and it will appear.
I was in the Hyundai dealership this morning and they are doing the pipercross filter, fitted for £35.94 which seems much cheaper than anywhere else.
Oooh I just noticed, they're offering a Pipercross Filter as an actual Hyundai Accessory. Keep this in mind if your service departments give you some agro about having one. Just more cannon fodder, so to speak.
Got one off ebay a few weeks back, cost me £45
Never would expect a Hyundai dealer to sell something at a good fair price, unbelievable!
There is someone in facebook who has driven with the airbox opened and pipercross filter. Now his turbine wheel is broken cause he soaked in a few sand/dust/whatsoever things.
Please keep that in mind and do it on your own risk!
I've just tried my Pipercross filter and it doesn't seal very tightly with the lid off.
The dude on Facebook has probably just sucked a lot of shite in thinking all is well.
The fitment/seal of the filter isn't adequate in my opinion.
The locking plastic wedge is locked down with the lid on, there must be a way of a better fitment without the lid on ie. for the turbo noises.

You can either; tighten the wedge with an adhesive rubber strip on the wedge or use actual adhesive foam tape around the air horn. Either works fine but the latter work better.
Form the foam tape around the circumference of the opening. Place the filter in the box away from the contact point of the air inlet. Slide it up to make contact and slip in the wedge. Very tight and no movement with or without the lid.

Thanks for your input RVN, yup the second method looks a good way to go.
Got the k&n installed. As it's a tight fit, it doesn't move at all. Driving with the lid opened is kinda addictive, but I am trying to keep it down to a minimum
