    Does anybody know where (other than a dealer) to get intake air filters? I have over 26000 miles and its time to change it out. The dealer told me over $45 for theirs.

    I wouldn't worry about changing it untill 30,000 miles but when that time comes I recommend you use OEM filters. I show the MSRP is $18.00, maybe $45 was including installation? The link Paradox supplied is a good way to go. Stay away from the crappy filters the auto parts stores sell.

    I bought my last set of air and cabin filters for my 2005 Prius on Amazon.
