** FOR THE EARLY RX3 WITHOUT THE SPLIT PLASTIC PANEL**
Remove the 2 side bolts ( green arrows)
without having to remove top box it is possible to loosen the bolt shown (red arrow).
This allows enough "wiggle room" to remove the orange plastic side panel.
************************************************** ************************
Unfortunately there is a metal tab (yellow arrow) welded to the frame that blocks the path for the air filters removal. This tab seems to serve no purpose
so I removed it
, hopefully I won't regret doing this at a later date
.
Undo the screws and the air filter carrier slides out .The air filter consists of 2 different grades of foam and a wire mesh . The wire mesh I think is attached to the air filter carrier.
