Air Filter & Oil Filter -best $?

Where is the best place to buy air and oil filters?
Looking for OEM Toyota
I do the oil changes myself. The dealer wants $27 for an air filter, yikes!

Maybe if I bought in bulk there is a discount rate?

Thanks for any help

The first place I check when I need a part for my truck is 1sttoyotaparts.com. Some of their stuff is listed as cheaper than what my dealership wants, and some of it is just a little bit more. I havn't looked specifically at air filters, but I know you can get good prices on all kinds of various knick-knacks for your truck there.

I've eyed Ebay a few times for oil filters but never got them... I'm still debating as to whether or not I want to do that.

As for air filters - I'm happy with my Amsoil and would most definitely prefer to clean over shelling out a ridiculous amount for another strip of paper

Does Amsoil have 4th gen filters yet?

You can give TOR a PM to price check and see if your dealer is gouging you. Else, I'm with the other guys in recommending ebay or an online shop (check the TTORA.com sponsors)
