    I got mine today. Fast service. They aren't exactly the same as what I get from the dealer, but they look like they'll fit and the filter medium actually looks better. Made in China, like most everything else these days.

    Are they still available? I have a 2005 #6 prius. The website shows just the NPN brand at $14.75. Part # R2060-134596 Do I have the right one? Thanks, Pagile

    Pagile,

    Interesting. I just looked again at the filters I received, and they are NPN. It does look like they're out of the OEM Denso filters. Still, $14.75 is still a pretty reasonable price.

    I got the Denso. They lied, they are not OEM.

    The original filter has a lip all the way around. These are pleated with foam rubber glued on two sides and the other ends are just the last long edge of the pleats. I think they will work, but they are not as advertised. The insert in the box says they are for the 2000-2002 Avalon and the 2002 Camry. The Denso Part# they invoiced and sent is 453-1011.

    Maybe they had the correct ones for the first few people and shipped anything close when they got a flood of orders. I'm glad I didn't bother to get the $5 coupon as I will never use this vendor again.

    If you order the filters from Metropolitan, you get a price cheaper than the non-sale price from AutoParts and you get Toyota parts in the red boxes with "Toyota" all over them like other parts from Toyota. This price was too good to be true - and it wasn't true.

    According to this site: http://www.densoproducts.com/resultsApp.as...uctCategoryID=3 , the correct Denso# is 453-1013.
