ohhhhh....you mean they stick the whole friggin filter inside the cabin?!?!?!....duh...i thought you meant they had the stock air box/filter in engine bay and ran a flex hose from air box inlet to inside cabin...then, hook it up to a/c vent!!!!....maybe the car is so slow that the a/c is putting out more air than they get up front...! the vw set up is stupid...many are yanking the 'noise pipe' and just plugging it up like it is on their other models! ...and vw has all the stock parts to plug it up with.
