Just get a KandN/Green Cotton panel filter. They are much better.

Do you mean ECU?
You shouldnt have any problems it is a very common modification. I doubt you will need a remap either, unless you have a full stainless exhaust.

Panel filter tbh. Less likely to encounter an anti pollution fault

Very simple task but since I had my camera to hand I thought I'd take some pics.
First off open the bonnet and the Airbox is in the bottom right corner.
Undo the jubilee clip and screws (x4)
Lift off the cover and you can now see the old Air-filter, lift it up and out and replace with the new one.
Then replace the Airbox lid and re attach the hose with the jubilee clip.
I also gave it a quick clean.
I've swapped a temporary cheap Halfords one for an K&N filter.
Makes a difference you can feel in my opinion. |

Would happily swap an induction kit for an airbox and panel! the noise isn't really my kind of thing....
