You need to either make or buy one of these

Yes that's the type of filter that I want can you point me in the right direction to buying one do they fit al mini's?
Once I have that do i just need to give Rockwatt the size & then he can make the part so it will fit the carb?

Awesome thanks, that set up looks like it will save some ££ on a new air box.
