Remove the Black box with the BMW logo on it, thats your Air Box with the filter inside (infront of the MAF/AFM), and fit the BMC infront of it.
Take a look at my pics in the Gallery section if you want another look.

excuse my ignorance will but if i remove the airbox isnt tht gonna leave a square/rectangle connection?

Altho thinking now you may well be right, the orginal BMW AFM on an M20 maybe a rectangle opening...Its circular on my MAF...
Anyone else got any ideas?

I have the BMC brochure, you dont get it with the kit.

It says you have to adapt something. Whatever it is, it cant be difficult.

Get some pictures up of what the problem is and lets see if we can solve it.
