Is the plastic thick enough to drill out the holes slightly and fit metal spigots?

is it just me or is the complete inlet on backwards?

You can still get that part from vxm but you'll be better off finding s good second hand one, trade price is £54.00 + VAT

From memory, this is in his Mk2 Astra, so I guess plenum on that way due to challenges of mounting in that car :y

Its sideways and then the inlet is also backwards!

Dont think it would be wise to drill out the plastic, why what are you thinking?

How much do you want for it mate? Only difference i see with the thing is on most its got a cover and the screw is undernearth, mine is all just one piece
