Are they worth the money? I run my lid cut like the HRC and am a little hesitant about water. If you have one, how do you like it? Are there other options that are better? Thanks!

I think they are overpriced....instead of getting it look into just the outerwears airbox cover for around $20. Its the same material that ehs uses and I have yet to get water in my airbox after numerous wet and muddy races.

what I did was cut my lid like the HRC and make a water baffle better then the HRC.

Then I put an outerwears airbox cover over the lid and and tucked it under the lid.

works like a charm.

but u realy have to push down hard to get the clips on that hold the lid on. and after about 20 or so times the clips start to rip the cover. so order 2

well 20 and 20 = 40 so do that twice and theres you ehs lid , i love mine , done very nice , gr8 quality . not to mention the rubber seal underneath . this guy does it up . plus it looks gr8 when ya pop yo seat... i had 1 for my 400 and now my 450r. what 80 dollars for a nice airlid . that lasts forever , folks spend 2000 dollars for front suspension setups. and 200 for handlebars , there is alot of stuff spent also , so 80 aint that bad for a performance part ..... my 2 cents

Now that I think of it mine has not ripped!

I just thought it would but has not !!!
Ops my bad!

I will get I pix of my set up it works real good!
I was just going to buy the EHS replacement filter and make my own hardware. But I think my design is more efficient! There is no lip for the water to get trapped on top. And mine has a water deflector incase water does get through.
