SO EASY to put a panel filter in and out... you can do it in minutes as long as you have the right tool to remove the airbox lid. Think it's a star head, or whatever you call it... no need to declare it at all IMO.

panel filters do not affect your insurace as you're not altering the vehicle in any way and you could also argue that its to reduce emmisions and save fuel, which they do if you're not flooring it.
It's no different than going to Halfords and buying one of their filters instead of a Ford one.

I bet it makes a difference, I just don't know by how much. I am sure you will dig it.
