Default [Q] Engine Air Filter?

I saw different pix from ebay for the engine air filter for my 2010 RX

Can some one point me which is the right one?

1) http://www.ebay.com/itm/2010-RX350-E...#ht_500wt_1180

2) http://www.ebay.com/itm/K-N-33-2443-...ht_2360wt_1139

3) http://www.ebay.com/itm/Beck-Arnley-...#ht_1084wt_931

Thanks

It actually looks like the second one. That might be a generic picture, first and third.

dude, do a search on this site for the oem filter part number. I got one two weeks ago on ebay for $18 with free shipping. Toyota dealer price was $25+tax. except for K&N, other two aren't for Gen3 RX. First one looks like its for Mazda and some Toyota vehicles but its also possible the seller is using one picture for illustration purposes only.

I would recommend by going with the actual Lexus/Toyota Part number for anything and not really worry about the pictures. I am thinking of starting a thread and collect all part numbers and it will be very handy and helpful for all DIYers.

17801-0P051 Air filter
$34.10 from lexus dealer

17801-0P050 can also be used. Its the same filter but older partnumber. I ordered from Parkplace lexus on ebay for $18.95 + free shipping. They listed it as 0P050 but they all have 0P051 only which is what I got.

Sewell is a Lexus Dealer and CL members get a discount. Why pay $31?

Default Get a K&N...

Since Lexus charges half the price of a really GREAT filter, put in a K^N & dont worry It is definitely worth it if you are keeping the vehicle for a few years. Make sure when you install that the factory did NOT overoil it; if it is dripping oil at all, wipe some off so it won't interfere with the MAF sensor. I have K&N on all my vehicles but I keep them awhile!!!
