Default FAO anyone with a K+N cone filter on 4x4 Cossie

Tried to fit my new K+N cone filter today but came across a snag, the bracket that supports the filter seems too short as it says to screw it behind the headlight but then it doesn't reach the turbo intake pipe
Also it says that one of the pipes has to go onto the amal valve out pipe, which one is this as there are 3 pipes on it?

Am I being an idiot and not reading the destructions properly, have I got the wrong fitting bracket or do the brackets just not fit and I'll have to make something?

I haven't got the bracket on mine and if you HAVEN'T got a hole for the pipe of the amal valve then just DONT use it(it's the return one)

Steve,

on the amal valve there are 3 ports with letters on them.

A is the Air one you want.

think you can just leave it off though.
