The Elite-Eclat airbox used to be available through Lotusbits in the UK. However, I talked with Mike Taylor a while ago, and he indicated they don't have them any more. He's considering making up a mold and producing his own reproduction parts, but that's a ways off in the future.

The airbox is much quieter than the open, unsilenced air cleaners, like K&N. They're also more efficient and the engine produces more power with the airbox than without it. There is a low restriction advantage to the K&N filter, but you can get a K&N flat panel filter that will fit the Lotus airbox.
