I really like these filters. They have a nice rounded gasket that comes pre-lubricated, and a silicone ADBV, and I paid less than $4 per filter after shipping.
My first DIY oil change ever. I'd neglected the oil changes for awhile, and didn't want my usual mechanic seeing it, so I did it myself. Aside from having to take the wheel off the car to get to the oil filter (my tummy got in the way underneath), it was easy as pie. $9 for the oil at O'Reilly on clearance was a great deal so I figured why not go for it.

Congratulations !!! On your first oil change !!!
No going back now, you are one of the club.
You can use better oil, do it right (because you care) and save money.
