Can't say that I'm overly impressed by the local parts houses and thus have gone to ordering on the web for much better deals.

Take a look at http://www.power-21.com/FramPower21i...b=F&pn=CH200PL. It provides a list of a bunch that will work for different vendors.

If you don't mind Fram, Amazon has a two-fer sale. See http://www.amazon.com/Fram-CH200PL-P...9812423&sr=8-2. If your order is more than $25 then you get free shipping.

Just a thought. Your mileage may vary.

Note the placement of the holes in the filter. This varies with the make and year with some almost totally perforated, and some with few perforations. I wonder if this makes any difference?

The perferations serve to help distribute the oil evenly through the pleated filter. I would want MORE rather than less to avoid excessive pressure drop when the oil is cold....which can open the filter bypass.
