I use the Wix also, p/n 51365 or you can use the larger (Maxima) one which is p/n 51356. I think I will actually upgrade to the Amsoil EA012 next oil change.

 

Amazon has 2 Purolator PureOne PL14612 filters for $9.48 + freeship

 

Regarding the OEM filters, as I recall, both the 65 and 9E (larger) filters are made with metal endcaps. Someone cut them open & posted pics a few years back on this forum. So, they should be fine, espevially if you are doing regular oil/filter changes.

 

I saw both in the store and picked up the 612 for now. I did notice the 610 was a little longer. It can be used with no negative effects I assume?? No clearance issues or fitament issues?

 

It will work fine.
