OK - pop quiz part two!

When I got the car, the part number 12 in the diagram below was in the boot.... it shows it in relation with apolenb filter.

Has anyone got a picture of it in situ?

Is there one at each side too?

One of the microfilters on mine (or rather the base of the housing just does not sit right - I wonder if its been assembed correctly. A quick look tonight shows its had a new screen so guess the under "tray" must have been removed at some time.

Many thanks

David

There's only one of those parts. Locates between the microfilter housings. Just slide it on. Sorry no better pic of it:

I just replaced my filters this weekend and saw nothing like part 12 on my car when replacing the filters. So either its somewhere in the middle i.e. I didn't need to touch it to replace the filters or not there on some cars.

Antti - thanks yet again!

It looks intact, so wonder why it was not refitted... I am sure I will find out when I try.

I really suspect somethings up with the drivers side filter "tray".... I am just waiting for wet feet... bound to happen.
