I'm wondering if anybody has converted the old style cabin filter housing on a B5 to B5.5 cabin filter housing.
Just so everyone knows, the cowl was available to order from any VW Dealer when I did my 2000 Passat V6.You'll also have to order the air filter and tray, also the rubber seal that goes along the front of the lip toward the engine compartment.. To do this one has to remove the wipers and put the cowl slightly under the bottom edge of the windshield---also this photograph is of an Audi with a supercharger on it, that I believe is no longer made. If I can find the photographs that I took of my installation I will post them...There it is!
I just stole this picture from another post. That's the rain tray/cowl cover I used have for 1998 B5. It was original with the car. Try and find one those, it's impossible.
