I just bought a Whisper lid for my 02 'bird. I've had a K&N filter on for a while, but now I need a replacement self-sticking gasket to fit around the bottom side of the new lid. Does anyone know where to get one? No one seems to sell them apart from the filter, and I can't get a response from K&N. Guess I could make a homemade one -- anyone tried that?

I emailed K&N on the same question - they offered to send (or sell, I can't remember) me one.
But my whisper lid came with the gasket - are you sure you didn't get one, you might want to ask the place you bought it from.

Umm, no silicone spray near the engine please. It does nasty stuff to oxygen sensors (google this for details).
There are some labeled "sensor safe" if you look.

Another follow-up: Not only did K&N send me one for free, they UPS 2nd Day Aired it for free! Big thumbs up to them.
