Default Air Intake Replacement

Hello! Does anyone know where I can find an air intake for my Lexus ES300 from 2002? I've look on the internet, but only found ones for different years than my model. It doesn't have to be OEM, it just has to work.

Another important question - How do I properly replace mine? I also couldn't find any videos, and I don't want to break my car. Thank you in advance!

Hello,

What happened to your current intake in the first place?
What part of an intake are you talking about, Air Box, Piping or Intake Manifold?

The intake system appears to be identical to the one in similar year Toyota Camry, there should be plenty of them at the junkyard, which will be the cheapest and fastest option. If that won't work, look around local partouts, it will be a cheaper option than getting one from eBay.

Hope this helps and best of luck!

Hello! What happened was I was trying to replace the air filter, but because the plastic on the air filter box is old and brittle it broke.

I wouldn't mind replacing the entire intake system, it'd be great to see some extra HP in my old car. Plus, it would make for a good start in fixing cars.

Those intakes are well designed from the factory, there is not much to get from the aftermarket system other than extra noise and 2-3hp boost, which is impossible to tell apart during regular driving. I personally would just go with OEM setup, it will save you a lot of hassle.

Hope this helps and best of luck!
