I went on to their website and it wasn't listed as an option.

Pep Boys' exclusive rights are up but I don't know of any physical retail places that carry the filter. I've been able to find some online vendors.

That's good to hear, I knew it had to be close. I always keep an eye out in the local auto parts stores but I've never seen them. Luckily I have a Pep Boys within a few miles. The problem is it's so ghetto I take the parents' spare POS car to go down there so it's kind of inconvenient.

would it be a bad idea to use non-synthetic oil?

It's fine. That's what the factory used and that's what the dealer will use if you don't suggest a synthetic.

Royal Purple Filter

Just wanted to share with the RP filter users...

I just ordered some RP filters from Pace Performance for $12.95 each with free shipping. Not sure how long they have free shipping so now might be a good time to pick some up.
