[QUOTE="UselessPickles, post: 556698, member: 3256"] Per Wicked Webby's recommendation, I added 4 more screws to the right-side filter to prevent leakage past the seal: [IMG]https://www.uselesspickles.com/files/pictures/fjr_airbox_mod/rhs_filter_mounted_update.jpg[/IMG] I also discovered that the silicone adhesive doesn't hold those nuts in place too strongly. I popped one off the air box while applying pressure and trying to get a screw started. I tried epoxy now, but am having doubts about it. I think the final solution will be some good duct tape framing the hole on the right side of the air box. The nuts only need to be held in place enough so that they won't pop out. The spikes driven into the plastic will take care of holding them from rotating as you tighten the screws. [/QUOTE]
