Thanks for your insight as looking to add this but didn't realize the Dinan part is just a reshaped, thinner airbox cover which creates more space in the existing OEM box to fit larger air filters.
The Dinan CF CAI cover is a direct plug and play fit to the 50i air box. Honestly not sure why they don't advertise it to do so, but the F85 has an identical air box.
