197 air intake hose

[gdr]

hi all, I've had my 197 for a few months now and the person who had it before me decided to get that big black air intake hose removed, the one that goes over the front of the engine and down to the front bumper.

where can I buy one of these that fits my car? I've looked online but to no avail.

thanks.

Have you tried contacting breakers. On ebay there's often cars being broken and there are breakers yards that specialise

Thanks, I've sent them a message, the contact number on the listing isn't working right now.

I've had no luck so far after contacting quite a few places, also scrap yards in the local area, surely there has to be somewhere where I can get an air hose and an airbox lid? 8)

Basically, the two parts I've arrowed below... :headphone:

Jesus why on earth would they get rid of them...

No idea but from what I read on here, probably to give it a bit more noise :blink:

Yeah removing the lid would do that, but removing the one that leads from the front grill its crazy..

Yeah I'd say the same.

Will any air hose work for it provided it's the correct size to fit/attach onto the air box?

That one has a special shaped end that fits into a slot in the bumper.

Having zero luck finding the parts I need.

Looking at an aftermarket cold air feed to fit onto the airbox, would this, this or this (ebay link) fit onto it? all three are 3", if that isn't the correct size, what is?

cheers all.

the air box lid helps hold the air filter tight in its recess as well

I had to buy a complete airborne when my lid went missing.
Renault wanted £60+vat
Got one on eBay from a breaker for £20 and even had an itg filter in.
Gave it a clean and oil and stuck it in

Email KTEC see if they have a spare?

GUYS, come on! Didn't any of you know that hot air = +100bhp and more noise makes your car have more torque??!?!
