Default pollen filter after 70k miles is not a pretty sight
and i know the dealer didn't ever change it as part of the 4/50 warranty.

Default They're all over Ebay, but I don't know if those are quality... anyone ever buy one?
Other than that, all of the OEM places will have it...

Does ECS sell them?
