K&N Filter Help

I bought a K&N Filter for my 2002 Audi A4 1.8T. I got the part #33-2209 from at least 3 different places, including www.knfilters.com. The filter does not fit my filter box. I've called K&N and they tell me there's nothing they can do but give me a refund. Before I go this route, does anyone have any experience with K&N filters? Any sugggestions?

RE: K&N Filter Help

that one may be for the b5 body style and you have a b6.
I dont think they would be the same for both body styles.

RE: K&N Filter Help

I think I'm going to try one more time to open the filter box myself and see if I can get it to fit. If it won't work, then I'll send the filter back to K&N and get myself a refund. That audiworld page you sent Jestnomen seems like it could be a big help, thanks.

Thanks everyone for your help!
