Best place to buy K&N Filters?

So I'm going to replace my stock filters with K&N's but don't want to pay crazy local prices (Australia) and I know it will be cheaper to send some from the states or somewhere even with the shipping.

What is the cheapest online shop to get these that and if you have previously bought form them that would be a plus!

Thanks

That part number is not for AMG. If you check online you'll see it. Try the link I posted above and find out your car and his car.

Fair enough, but $42 each does not sound high to me

I think that was what I paid over 2 years ago.

Good luck

PS: I paid more than that for a K/N on my Ford

Yes, you'll need 2 K&N filters. As for gains, not so sure, 4 to 6 HP gain I believe.

Read this and see if you think there is any real benefit.

I just put in fresh factory Mann filters for $35 (for both).

Cheers for the responses..


http://www.autoanything.com/air-filt...0A3063077.aspx - won't ship outside of US
sumitracing - same deal as above

http://www.sucksquishbangblow.com/ - will ship to Australia but for $45US! Whoa .. Still it is 30% cheaper than locally!

It seems a lot of online US shops have great relationships for local postage so they can offer free shipping but they aren't quite there with international orders yet unfortunately.
