Carquest R85358MP Virgin C&P

[MurkyAsparagus]

On the cutter today is a Carquest R85358MP. This filter is used on some Honda models, most notably the 2000s Honda Insight. If you've never seen this car, check it out. It may be one of the coolest cars of the era, technologically. I've helped my good friend work on the car a fair amount.

The filter looks well made. It has a slightly uneven media pleat at the crimp, which isn't uncommon. However, most CQ filters lately have been PGI made. I haven't seen this on other PGI filters I've cut open or seen on here. The center tube doesn't resemble current PGI construction. However, I would imagine these filters aren't very common, could be old stock.

Here are the pictures:

Does it say on the filter or on the box were it's made?

Thanks Murky!

The one I seen posted on eBay shows "Made in India" & "Leak Tested" at the top. Not sure if that's changed but they look the same.

Unfortunately, the MP versions don’t come in individual boxes, just sprawled across a box with some bubble wrap . I was really hoping for the entire master pack. I can check this weekend on the origins.
