UPDATED: Nicer cover latch so that the top stays on the frame better.
Tired of getting small bits of leaves and other stuff blown in my face when ever I turn on the air in my MK2, I went searching for a solution.
I was inspired by Morimori (http://www.vwgolf-mk2.com/eprofile.html) and how he modified the cabin air intake of his highly custom MK2 GTI (http://www.vwgolf-mk2.com/epollenfilterinstallation.html).
I was not able to find the filter he installed (it was 90's JDM, probably), I just created my own filter covers and frame for any one to print and use!
Since this was custom, I added a little VW flair by integrating the pattern from early OEM VW parts boxes as the pattern for the grill.
Fits a filter medium up to 5 mm thick. I'm sure it can be modified to fit thicker filters if desired.
Includes supported (for resin printers) and un-supported versions. The frame file goes onto the intake housing and the cover part goes over it.
