you have to do some "trimming" to make everything fit. have to cut some of the lid ( trim down the neck of the lid so it brings the maff closer to the front of the car) and the bellows. everything will fit just fine after you trim it.

I have their systyem and was able to just cut my bellows to get the ring to fit on. Didn't touch my lid. It's really pretty easy.
