My airbox on my drivers side has pretty much had it, the backing plate is knackered, i have tried to repair it but i think its to far gone (looks like someone has over tightened the clips and broken them then tried to repair and made it worse at some point)

With all these LS conversions and a few write offs I was hoping someone would have one?

Or can you buy new backing plates?

Is it the backing plates or just the bits that the silicone pipes bolt onto that have collapsed?

If it's the latter then you can reinforce them. I have done mine and will try find a pic.

No the whole backing plate is a bit of a mess really! looks like someone has tried to repair it with class fibre but made a mess of it

Thats a shame. However you can buy new backing plates but I cannot remember where from. Maybe ACT??
