Sorry but try to use words you can spell.............somestimes you do.
who gives a rat's ass if he spelt it wrong. In the end you knew what he was trying to say. When you dont have threads to bash on you become a english professor and bash on spelling and grammar?

dont worry about njerald's post, its never informative and ALWAYS repetitive.
I bought a Suzuki cabin air filter off ebay and it would not fit in the filter housing. The OEM filter is held in place by slots and tabs. TYC attempted to eliminate the tabs and slots and substitute a cloth seal around the filter, however they made the filter the same OD as the OEM filter without allowance for the tabs inside the filter housing, therefore it will not fit into the housing (it's too long). Also compared to the OEM filter it's cheaply made (that's why it costs 1/3 as much - duh!) but I can't speak to performance of course however I'm very skeptical that it will not leak air around the sides of the filter thereby rendering it marginaly effective for it's purpose.
