Kippa, here is a pic of the setup I had in my V8 Disco, these round filters are not designed to have the air coming into the side, they work much better with the air entering from the front, as designed, Regards Frank.

Even still have LH front corner space for dual battery. A little bit of a fiddle to remove element for replacement/cleaning though, but worth it I reckon.
You should be able to get hold of one from anyone wrecking an oldie, got mine from a LR workshop/parts guy, cannot remember how much it cost, but it is all steel not plastic.

ANY CHANCE OF PUTTING UP A PICTURE OF THIS SET UP MATE? THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I AM WANTING TO DO NOW ASAP. CHEERS
