Bosch and Hengst are two more great options - there's not too much to an air filter. What are you specifically looking for? For cabin air filters, just make sure that you get a activated charcoal one.

Is your air filter a girl or a boy?
If you can leave two black stripes from the exit of one corner to the braking zone of the next, you have enough horsepower. - Mark Donohue
James is a good name for an air filter.
Jeez, I though "air filter" was a good name for an air filter.
Yeah, BMW, Mann, Mahle, Hengst.
Avoid stuff with oil on it, or cone shaped bling bling that makes noise and says it's worth 20 horsepower. BMW didn't give away 20 horsepower.

BMW refers to them as "Intake Silencers"
What a wonderful name! Why didn't I think of that? No wonder I'm not rich......

Ah, the modern world. I just had my third long date with a woman with whom I shared almost every interest. I told her she had a lovely butt. She called me a sexist, and told me to never contact her again. Weird.

Read my tread on aFe filters... and the seller. Whatever you do...Remember that an open 360 air filter will draw a lot of hot air from the engine compartment, boxed/closed air filters breathe cool air from outside. Your car has delicate electronics to measure air temps, not oil soaked air temps. Race engines change bearings and piston rings as often as brake pads. What is it that you want? Have you cleaned the air filter box? See all that sand, dust, leaves on the bottom? Will you filter be able to stop that BEFORE it reaches your intake valve? As for PAT, if you have to ask...you're really young and missing on the subliminal humor on this tread.
