Default K&N Filter: Cheapest Vendor

Anyone know the cheapest site to buy the K&N drop-in (factory replacement) air filter? I checked the K&N site and their charging $80.00+ for the 2GS one. (Park # 33-2170). Oh, and only sites that DO NOT charge for shipping.

Any links would be appreciated. Thanks!

Chris

K&N price depends on application, for my RX300, it cost less than $40 shipped.

$80 is a ripoff. I've bought several K&N filters over the years for several vehicles I have owned for under $45. I guess you just have to shop around a bit.

Thanks for the input guys!

Just completed my order from www.ajusa.com. The total for the filter was $58.72 including tax and shipping. Since they are located in San Diego, the salesman said that shipment would arrive as early as tommorow.

I will keep you guys posted on this.

Still a bit overpriced for me. I spent $47 and change for mine which I got from one of the local part stores. Can't remember which one though.

I paid like $40 at Advance, they matched Autozone's price. Just go to their websites, you can order online or get the online price at the store.
Tons of options

Newbie questions to K&N filter user. Do you guys feel difference in power? Is it worth $50?

Thanks...

You guys are forgetting that the 400 is much cheaper than the 300
Sucks that we're slower and have to pay higher for these damn filters

Pepboys, autozone, kragen were all around 55-60.

You guys are also forgetting about inflation. Many of you fellas bought your filters over a year to 2-3 years ago. I called all the above referenced auto shops and they all are charging $60-70 PLUS shipping for 2GS300 K&N Factory Replacement Air Filter. Moreover, PepBoys said I had to wait 8-10 Business Days to special order the filter, AND i had to pre-pay for the filter, AND come to the store location to pick it up...NO THANKS!!!!
