Intake Cone cleaning

I have the dual cone intake setup and was wondering how to go about cleaning them. Is it similar to the K&N process?

Any advice helpful thanks.

K&N kit works great, just make sure not to over-oil the filters. Although this is less of a concern when there isn't a MAF sensor.

with the amount of oil dumped into the intake stream, I'd say the filter oil is not a concern!
