Default How do i clean Wimmer top breathers?

Hey guys, I have a Wimmer high performance intake basic kit with 2 top breathers. This was on the bike when I bought it so I don't know how to clean the top breathers on the intake because I have no install instructions.
Can anyone please help me figure out how to clean the top breathers??

Thanks

They were the first people I contacted for the info. It seems like they don't answer their emails too well.
That's why I'm asking here.

It's easy.
Find the small allen screw at the bottom of the breather and loosen it up. When the bottom plate falls out, so does the breather element.
I just give them a quick bath in gasoline and then let them air dry.
Pop them back in, stick the bottom plate in and tighten.
It's a 5 minute job.
