I had one of those glass see-thru filters come apart on me one time while I was in the fast lane. By the time I got over to the other shoulder and popped the hood(idiot)the whole motor was blazing. Luckily some one stopped with an extinguiser and put it out before it traveled into the pass compartment. I run a barrel type now too. If you don't like the looks of it there you could put it right before the fuel pump. Pretty much hidden down there.
