Pollen filter for FDH coupe part number?

I’m after the part number for the pollen filter for the 2litre fdh coupe models with air con.
I’m sure it is the same as the 200 bubble ?
I remember swooping it 5 years ago when I bought the coupe and it looked similar to vvc models I use to own.
I’ve looked at rimmers and it’s for the models without air con.
Can anybody help. Thanks in advance.

The part number given in the R8 Coupe/Cabriolet section is the same part number as given for the pollen filter for the R3 (JKR100021). I would not expect the ducting to be any different between air-con/non-air-con models (ducting/filter housing is certainly the same for both as far as the 25/ZR is concerned).
I find it odd that the Coupe section specifies it a for non air-con models as the cars without air conditioning were not normally supplied with a pollen filter fitted in the ducting to start with. Mind you, this would not be the only case of the XPart part catalogue (which is where the info on Rimmers online catalogue comes from) giving incorrect application details for a part!

Thanks for replying.
I will go and buy one now.
I think we should have a page on the forum for all the service parts and oem part numbers for individual engine models.

I Should of checked first.
I purchased the filter.
I took the glovebox out.
And my square dash with air con doesn’t have a pollen filter.
But
Was impressed they had fitted a mini strut to glove box.
Which I don’t remember seeing on the vvc and vi.
It must of been my VVC coupe with a bubble dash that I changed the pollen filter.
I even got the rover workshop manual out and checked the air con and maintenance section.
But no avail.
But it FITTED my 2003 ZS180, and the one already fitted was NOT the correct one.
The ZS hasn’t got mini strut what a shame.
Thanks for answering and replying.
