What do you call them suckers?

What do you call them suckers? Have tried several different search terms on Ebay but found squat.

Looking for one of them airfilter aircleaner cover lids but not the full retail K&N ones. Looking for the cheap knock offs. Just want it for a nicer looking lid.

Of course I mean for a carb'ed v8

Re: What do you call them suckers?

Wow thanks for the search help but I was sure ebay would be full of cheap knock offs like all the other ait filters sold.

Maybe they got a lock on the design for a while?

I am keeping my stock base but want a nicer lid.

Big props to anyone who can point me in the direction of a yellow one even if not that cheap.

under hood theme is black and yellow but if I found one for $20, Id buy any color.

Re: What do you call them suckers?

not bad for 99 cents

Finally made a choice on an air filter. #1 as its black n yellow and cheap.
I got two of them for 99 cents. Guy has some left. Here is one.

Item number: 290104603546

I'm gonna double stack em.

think no one is buying as he list them wrong.
Them 14" filters fit almost everything.
