Need help with intake

Ok, i cant find a drop in K&N filter to fit my 03TLS, cant find a short ram intake either, they all say wont work for type S, so what are we supposed to use, a freakin pipe and sock?? help me ppl, im getting frustrated, i dont want to put on a cold ram cause i dont wanna mess with the bumper and all that, i just want a reg short ram intake, but seems like the space alocted for it is tiny??? i thought about just buying a KN round filter and putting it in instead of the air box that come factory but it was to big in diamiter to fit??? so what do i do???????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????

I am selling my old Weapon-R short ram intake for $75 shipped. It came off of a regular TL, however, you can make it fit by cutting off about 4" to 6" off the pipe due to the VSA on the Type S model. You can email me at sam_suen@csaa.com for pictures. It is in good condition, all it needs is the filter needs to be cleaned.

I just in stalled a AEM cold air and it was east as hell. There is no need to take of the bumper. Just jack up the driver side front, take of the wheel and pop out the wheel well plastic. Did it all in under 1 hr. Sounds and looks great.

Just buy some rhino car ramps. An you don't need to take the wheel off, or even remove the battery if you have an extension for your socket wrench to install the CAI. Read other posts about the K&N... it will fit I believe... its just hard to press down.
