Hopefully that link works. I ordered an OEM air filter with my OEM fog light last week and figured I'd replace it after my co-workers agreed it was dirty enough to replace. Dealer wanted $40+ for new engine air filter, I got the OEM for $12.
It looks to be a cotton type air filter that is really oiled (drops of oil all over on the plastic package).
Air Filter spent most of its time in the high desert (we have some dust storms) but did make a trip from California to Iowa and back (almost 5k miles round trip after driving 1k+ in Iowa).
What do you folks think? Changed it too early? Not early enough? For $12 I'm not terribly worried about changing it every 10k miles.
Tried to hold filter up to light.
