I've noticed the Wix filter I bought a few weeks ago says MADE IN USA, whereas the new filters I purchased tonight says ASSEMBLED IN THE USA.

Both are Wix 51394

Has anything changed? They look identical from what I can see...
 
Are they both the same color. I was under the impression that Wix has two factories, and the white filters come from one and the black filters come from the other. They're the same material/quality, just they use the color of the can to differentiate where it was made.

Which color comes from which factory, and where are the Wix factories located?
 
Both of these Wix 51394 filters are black and they look the same.

I have other Wix filters (51334) for a different car, which is also black and those have always said MADE IN MEXICO.
 
The Napa Golds for my Nissan and Toyota say made in USA. The one for my Honda cycle says made in Mexico.
