E63 air intake tubes

Do the E63 intake tubes not have an indentation on the drivers side? What are the chances we can swap our intake tubes for these?

Won't work.. The E63 air tubes use a square connection point and have square runners. Our tubes are round.

Of course.. That's part of the Group R&D project we are doing.. I am stalled because I am waiting for : 1) the stock MB air box assembly that i ordered, 2) The renntech CF airbox assembly.

I need the brand new stock airbox assemblies to give to them to take measurements from and I am waiting for the Renntech system to test.

Both were supposed to be here this week, but, havent received confirmation of ship date yet.
