The flanges absorb vibrations, ensure a secure attachment, and can stretch up to 1/16 of an inch (1.5mm) to fit between sizes. Plus, they're washable and reusable. This particular part fits multiple models like 2005 - 2008 Lotus Elise Base, 2008 Lotus Elise SC, 2006 Lotus Exige Base, and many more Mini and Subaru models as detailed in the compatibility table.
Using your K&N Universal Air Filter is easy. First, find the right spot in your vehicle's air intake system that matches the filter's size and shape. Install it securely by attaching it to the intake using the rubber flanges. Make sure it's firmly in place to prevent any air leaks. When it comes to maintenance, check the filter regularly. If it looks dirty, it's time to clean it. You can wash the filter with a mild detergent and water. Rinse it thoroughly and let it dry completely before reinstalling. As for storage, keep it in a clean, dry place. Avoid exposing it to sharp objects that could damage the filter. If you notice any signs of excessive wear or damage, it might be time to replace the filter.
