intake question for 05 Civic ex

I'm plannin on getting an intake system soon but just trying to find one for 05 civics is pretty hard to find. I have noticed there are alot for 04 civics and i was wondering if those will work or will any year civics work(00-05?). what intakes do you guys recommend getting. Ive heard mixed responses alot of postives on K&N FIPK, Iceman, V2, other things. I know topics been created on wat types of intakes are good so just dont tell me to search. answer the question or dont or just link me. Oh and another thing if you recommend a specific intake links to them will be great(price wise).Thanks

Any aftermarket intake for 01 to 04 will also work on 05 models, same engine.

pretty cool reviews. definatly(sp?) gave me light to more of this intake stuff. i really just look at intakes like intake an intake but then there are small things about them that make em bad or good. but anyways im always trying to find something good but at the same time dont bite a big hole in my wallet thats when i turn to ebay. ive seen a couple cool things on there but having a hard time choosing which one. always looking in here at the classifieds to see if anyone is sellin their intake. just to see what your recommendations are imma post couple links from ebay.

i have read in capyodas reviews and said that having the transmission mount makes installation a helluva lot easier but from that ebay pic it only shows common mounts except the trans mount. is it really needed? ill prob switch out the intake cone to a K&N intake because i hear ebay ones are not good at all. is that a good idea too?
