You could get new clocks, as they are quite cheap, but you will need to reset the mileage to yours on them.

If you have drilled sh!t loads of holes with a 30mm hole saw and plenty of 12mm holes to make it loud with a standard paper filter, is it going to be louder with a aftermakert panel filter?
I fear mine is going to be too loud  :embarassed:
