    If you have or had to replace the filter, how much did it cost, and where can you get one?

    I'm surprised that the cardboard frame of those things would hold up to being soaked in water. Good to know it does.

    I noticed that you didn't have that plastic piston "easy-down" on your glovebox door when you opened it. Did it break like mine, or did you just remove it before making the video?

    Chris's way is easier, but that looks like a fun project.


    Dammit... and I was just growing attached to that $20 in my wallet!

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    Chris, to your knowledge what is the media made of? Standard filter material? Are the sides cardboard?

    The sides of the OEM filters are not cardboard. Only thing you have to becarfull with is to not break the adhesive on the sides of the filter. Dont use high pressure water.

    I have to get the boat ready for the lake today, so it will have to wait till next week. :)
