Defect clearance - pod filter fix

[Driftspec]

So I got picked up for this, and I haven't been able to figure out what to do here:

The pod filter needs to be secured to the chassis/body in order for it to pass. The officer at the time just suggest a simple metal screw clamp, like the ones holding the piping to the intake. Only problem is, I can't really see a hole big enough on the chassis to put it through, or close enough for it to be effective. Does this mean that I need to drill some holes myself to get it secured properly? Does this sound logical and good enough for it to pass at inspection?

Cheers :)

I had CAMS scrutinerers tell me to secure my pod, but zipties were acceptable :)
Just strapped it up to the rad support, cops havent told me off for it yet in SA.

this is all i did and the inspector at regency loved it!

just a piece a metal bent and tucked under the hose clamp that holds the pod filter on, then a small hole and i used a exsisting hole in the engine bay. painted it black so it was not to pov spec and away you go

was about to suggest the same thing.maybe shorten ur intake aswell. ive got a similar set up on mine. il take a pic of it once it stops raining

Took me while to spot it, but thats a really clever idea Tim. TBH I have no idea if it will pass. I'm getting the exhaust done next week and hopefully I might try that afterwards, take it to get inspected and hope it works :)

[Tim.duncan]

the inspected looked at it gave it a shake and moved on... i just slapped it together to get it threw i have a better intake to go on but my ali welding skills need some more practice. might get around to it this week end maybe

it holds pretty well for a 10 min job
