Oil Filter #2 is a CH code Fram, a shop version of the 9972, ran for 5500 miles.

Both made in Mexico. I noticed the wavy pleats on #2.

2009 ES350 and 2006 Avalon respectively

The second filter is fine, not really an example of wavy pleats IMHO. Thanks for sharing.

Both look great to me

CH9972 held up for your 9500 miles but it probably had an easy ride on your ES350.
