Default Charcoal/baking soda filters?

Hello,
Do any of you know if the dealership uses a high quality air filter when replacing cabin filters? I am considering exchanging mine and installing it myself...charcoal/baking soda coated. Does anyone use this type of filter?
thanks

The Lexus OEM cabin filter is a Denso Charcoal filter. I have never heard of the baking soda coated filter? I use a high quality Charcoal filter but not always Denso.

Grab a charcoal filter from rock auto and install it yourself......EZ to do.
BTW! I have not seen a baking soda filter for our cars.

If this has charcoal and baking soda I would assume it works better than just a plain old charcoal...... Sorta like a "turbo charged" cabin filter! I used a WIX brand cabin filter that I purchased from Rocky and it seems to work well.
