And as an added plus, I can buy the Mahle from Halsey Imports in
Portland for ~$2.29 ea.  (Please don't quote on the price, I can't
remember exactly, and that is a bulk price for buying 10 at a time.  But
with 5 using the same filter . . . )

They also will break the same deal on the W7DTC plugs, ~$2.75 in
multiples of 10 rather than thier usual price of $3.05 ea.

FWIW,
