Air filter

Does anyone know where to find replacement air filters? The one that is in the hood, mine is dry rotted and falling apart. I cant find it anywhere. Thanks,al

Can you buy a piece of filter material from Dennis Kirk? Maybe find a piece of HVAC filter material at the hardware store.

Ronnie's mail order. I have nothing but good things to say about them.

I thought I read somewhere about some kind of hvac filter media being used. I'll have to check around but if anyone knows what I should be looking for that'd be great

Last year I used this for awhile

Water pad made by best air part number hm2.

I Cut it in half so it was a straight piece instead of round. Cut about 2 inches off it. Then I folded it. So its about 2 inces thick now. Fits in there very well. It appears to be made out of the same kind of foam. It was only 7 bucks. I did however ordered a new one from yamaha.

Thanks guys. Mes882 that's what I was looking for. If I only needed 1 I'd buy from yamaha but I need 3 maybe 4 so it'll be nice to save some $$

They are a bit pricey for a piece of foam that's for sure! Next time I may try Amazon or E-Bay.

Here is what I did today. I went to Menards and bought this Gutterfill foam. You'll find it in.....you guessed it, the gutter isle of shtuff. Cut it to length and that was it. The dusty sled in the picture is my 96 XT6.

Awesome, thanks for posting! I was just about to spend over $30 on a piece of foam from yamaha.

It was a woping $5. It's abit crusty on one side. I just put that side facing up.

I bought a piece of the gutter foam today, looks almost like the original foam, should work great!
