    Yes it’s a good time to order oem parts. Especially if your brake booster is buzzing too much.

    Or a you want a Prius Gen3 Spin On Oil Filter Conversion


    Or just filters and plugs.

    The flange bolts aren’t really needed; the ones on the original will undoubtedly be fine. Oil filter can be picked up from local dealership fwiw. Even the o-rings will likely be fine, but they’re cheap.

    do comparison shop with Amayama still; when I did the conversion I ordered the first 3 items from them, total cost with shipping, all-in (no extras, tax or whatever), was around $75 CDN. Not a special sale.

    My math in the above is a bit fuzzy. Here's my Amayama invoice, from 2019 (5 years back):

    And a calc, excluding the wipers, assuming the shipping stays as-is, and converted to USD:

    Again, the above is 2019 prices. I checked again this morning,, here is updated prices from Amayama, all sourced from UAE (even when price is slightly higher, to avoid double shipping charges: Bottom line, the 3 components, for $80.61 USD, all-in to my door, if I bought today:

    Noteworthy: I'm not including replacement bolts (not needed) or spin-on oil filter (readily available from local dealership). Again, not a special sale.
