The 'E' Type Forum

Hi Dave, That filter housing you have is 100% factory correct for your e type. USA & UK were the same. Notice it has 2 rings, the outer larger is for the larger diameter XJ filter and the inner smaller diameter is for an E type S2 filter. All you need is a S2 canister which differs slightly to a S1 ...

The gap you refer to at the bottom of the glove box was originally packed with thin wooden packers, I have some here but being new to the forum i've not tried to post a photo yet.
