HEPA air filter mod....need advice
I followed Jen's instruction on how to remove the cabin air filter last night. After 2 yrs/30k miles the air filter is kinda dirty. I'm debating btwn buying a replacement Acura filter or buying a HEPA filter from Sears and cutting it to fit the filter box.
My question is, has anyone done this mod ? There's so many different HEPA filters out there, does anyone know which one is the best fit at a descent price ?

High-Efficiency Particulate Air filters (HEPA), formerly called high-efficiency particulate arrestors, are another option of extended-surface media filters to consider.
This unique design was originally developed during World War II to prevent discharge of radioactive particles from nuclear reactor facility exhausts. They have since become a vital technology in industrial, medical, and military clean rooms and have grown in popularity for use in portable residential air cleaners.
HEPA devices have been traditionally defined as an extended-surface dry-type filtration system having a minimum particle removal efficiency of 99.97% for all particles of 0.3 micron diameter with higher efficiency for both larger and smaller particles. This rating is determined using a test challenge smoke that consists of particles of 0.3 micron average diameter.
