Whats wrong with my air filter?

Purchased a new air filter today and it seems to be missing a part, my old filter has this large top which seals the air filter shut but the new one seems to be missing it,
I thought maybe the top part comes off the old filter but it looks like its one sealed unit?

Its supposed to be for a disco 200tdi

have i ordered the wrong part?

Don't the black part come off and go on the new one from what I can see in pic

Metal lid stuck to old filter

they're different parts, you got the wrong 'un.

bugger, the ebay listing said it would fit my disco if it was between 92 - 94, mines 93

i had better message them and ask for a replacement

Looking at the pic you would think te top comes off but its a sealed unit

I made a similar mistake a while back, which is how I know there are 2 different filters for a 200tdi.

At least you didn't do what I did and waste an hour or so trying to remove the lid.

The seller has responded on ebay and will be sending out the correct part in the morning along with a postage label for me to send to old item back.

Not sure if anybody has used this seller before but i have got to say how impressed i am with their customer support, both helpful and friendly (plus the fact its 9pm)

all in all, very pleased
