insurance

[Ken-f]

Hey,

I'm just about to put a CAI on my euro today so i decided to call AAMI first, so when they asked for a modification, i told them, but the closest option was an 'air filter modification'....which i guess it is. The lady on the phone said, as long as its approved by qld transport, it was fine. I went onto the website and downloaded the modifications brochure and it said nothing about intake systems. However, it said under 'minor modifications' stuff like exhaust, lowering, headers, etc etc. I then went and downloaded a 'motor vehicle modification application' and the only options are 'chassis/frame/body', suspension, axles, brakes, steering, etc etc.

So my question is, what did you guys insure it as, and does this 'modification' need approval?

Thanks

I also read "Many minor modifications can be carried out without obtaining written approval. Details of these modifications are outlined in section one of the booklet." Would this mean, i need not get any approval at all? The only issue is it wasn't listed there a a modification.....but those mods included exhausts. So I should be right in assuming it wont need approval right?

I would write to AAMI asking the question, then if they say do it in writing they cannot later complain.
