Pollen filter top cover

Can some please post a picture of the cover that goes right over the pollen filter? I see a plastic clamp on the side and it has nowhere to clamp to.

Over that goes the plastic cover that the battery cover latches on to.

Thanks.

In this picture I see the top cover but I don't see the pollen filter housing cover. Is there none? Can't be that the filter is left there without a housing top?

The cabin pollen filter sits in the opening for the car's heat and AC system, there is no cover because the filter acts as one..........
