Default CRAP! I tore my K&N Filter...

...from my LMS intake. I was trying to clean it and I dropped it.

Does anyone know what filter I need to buy to replace the LMS K&N filter? Part number? Perhaps a "universal" K&N filter?

HELP ME!!!

The link above is for the intake, but does list the replacement filter #
Replacement Filter: RU-4990

The K&N filter for their IS350 intake is part #RU-4990, which has a 3" diameter opening, and is probably the one LMS uses. Measure the diameter of your LMS intake tube and compare it to make sure it's the same size. If it's not, then you can find one of a different size here.
