Something like Bosch active carbon filter will work as well as OEM and will cost half. I paid 13e for this.

ps - StatusRed - amazon link if u are interested. As for "washable" ones I can onlyh guess its not possible for our cars as you wouldnt fit the plastic-fixed frame in the spot, our filter has to be bendable. Maybe in trucks its different story.
and the fitter of the filter also need to be bendable, not too fat not too skinny , have the skill to recover lost nuts and bolts from behind the carpeting, and teh ability to juggle 4 flaming torches whilst upside down in the passenger footwell,,


grab yourself a magnetic pickup tool, with a large head



type, and when you get the bolts holding the bracket almost out pop that on and do the last threads by fingers, saves dropping the bolts down the carpeting , and use it to get the bolts started in the threads when reassembly time oh and Something soft and padded that wont wreck the sill will be a Real bonus (your ribs will thank you later)
