K&N air filter installation issues

Ok, so I thought this would be easy, but so far it hasn't been. First, the little U at the bottom of the stock air filter is pushed to one side a little bit, vs the K&N has it right in the center. With it being right in the center it doesn't fit right.
2nd, am I supposed to put the K&N directly into the stock air filter spot, or am I supposed to be putting it inside of the plastic contraption that the stock air filter is in. It looks like I will destroy the screen and maybe something else if I go to put the K&N inside the plastic piece that fits into the cutout.
Not sure if any of this makes sense, but hopefully the pics will explain. It just doesn't look like it fits. I bought it brand new and it's the correct part number per the K&N website. HA-6001.

Geez, I'm going to have to give up my man card for a month for this one. I had it upside down. I just thought it would fit like the stock one looked, but apparently not. Anyway, I'm back up and running now. Thanks for the advice. Gained 4 mpg when I put my D&D pipe on last week. Hopefully I can pickup another 1-2 with the K&N. I wouldn't think it would, but then again, I never dreamed a pipe could make that kind of difference either. 42.5 before the pipe, 46.25 with the D&D, maybe 47-48 with the K&N?
Thanks guys!!!
