It would be easy enough to fit, the harder chore would be finding one.

The high air intake provided by the snorkel in the side vent is pretty
good at getting cleanish air. I'd look at that assembly and make sure
the tubing connections are sealed right all the way to the filter.

The heavy duty filter is available from our vnedors
