It would serve you better if you developed some shopping skills.

If you prefer to shop online, follow this link and pick your filters.

https://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog...70_catalog.htm

Pelican Parts is only one of the big online MB specialty suppliers (AutohausAZ, FCP Euro, Parts.com, etc.)

If you prefer local, I've been able to source just about everything (filter related) from regular automotive parts stores (Napa, Advance Auto Parts, etc.). I go to MB dealerships for the big stuff.

Honestly for things like filters and such I just go to Rockauto. You still have to exercise some judgment, stay away from their economy lines, watch the shipping costs, etc. - but with a little care you can end up with quality parts at a substantial discount.
