As long as it's boxed, you'll be fine

i was pulled over on the weekend by the state traffic task force, they poped my bonnet, looked at the pod filter, made sure it was secure, then they said ok your fine to go couldnt find the battery under the bonnet! to check the clamps on it. ha ha! lol but the rule is the pod filter has to be secured by a bracket of some type to stop it from moving around freely. if its already in a air box type thing, it should be fine.

can u buy boxes for them or would it just be easier to make 1 yourself? also would a k&n panel make much of a difference compared to my stndard one?

The don't have to be BOXED, they have to be SECURED........ (^^ read above ^^)

yep as everyone said, has to be secured. my mate got pulled over by the hoon squad. the booked him for a few things (like bov and cutting the front bar), and after they had gone over the car he asked them what exactly the law was on pods in qld. the cop said as long as it is secure its fine.

on a side note, i used to be on the magna forum, and some guys on there were putting chicken wire under the motor to catch the pod if it fell off. now i've run a pod on a few of the cars i've owned, and i've never even had one come loose, let alone all the way off.
