C6 Cabin Filter
Hey guy's, anyone know where I can get a C6 cabin filter at a decent price? I heard they're over $100 dollars from GM!

It's a no brainer. I got mine in Miami last year, I wanted to stock up and buy a bunch for all my Canadian bros but no luggage space left.

Picked one up last year for that price right after Corrado mentioned they were on sale.

Tony, lets hit Niagara falls one day soon as I have to get my tires anyway and we can get some filters and stock up at the same time.

I went to CTC and bought a furnace filter that was a "blue mesh" and cut my own to size. You can get about 4 for about $3.
I know..... I'm cheap. But it works.

Not sure, a friend in the Porsche club just bought a bunch of stuff from them and said they are the real deal with regard to the delivery pricing.
