Made in Israel? Is it Kosher???? Enquiring minds want to know!

I use the ATP HA5 from www.rockauto.com.
It's impregnated with charcoal for odor reduction, and it comes without foreskin!.

I changed mine today as well and I think the old filter weighed more than the new filter and the platic housing together. Car just rolled 72K and I bet it has never been changed.

Well when i bought the cabin filter, i bought three, one for abp, myself, and mac4rmthebackoftheAc. i got two correct filter and the other was just a regular filter like the one above from lostang. i ordered mine from rockauto and they were good about it. called them up and told them and i should have my new one tomorrow. Looks like they MIGHT be running out and just tried to cheat me out of a HA-5 filter becuz it came in the ATP box. we'll see when i get the new one how it is.

Gotta love that North Bergen, Union, sweet smelling NJ air. I know that smell well as I use to work in that area. Change that filter once a year man.

I changed my filtea at 20K and could have maybe gone a few more months but it was dirty, a friend of mine who bougha used '03 TL asked me to help him with changing it and after I removed it I had to use my wet vac to suck out all but the debris that was caught in the filter housing.....we are talking a nest of garbage....
