Where's the most cost effective place to get filters
Was wondering if anyone had a suggestion on the most cost effective place to purchase the air and cabin filter for a 2006 Crossfire ltd? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Definately NOT the chyrsler dealership. I went there to check on some coolant, and when he found out I had a Crossfire it started raining crossfire parts...hey need an oil filter..heres a wix..good deal, $30, but if you want the Mann filter its $38..but hey its mercedes right? I got oil for $14.99 each I can let you have for $12, cuz my cost is $9.28 Oh! do you need air filters, list has em at $92 but i'll let you have em for $72. Im thinkin $72 air filters? I gotta see these maybe im missing some very important filters. So he brings em out and sure enough the Mopar are the same as the $17 Frams I put in. I mean cmon..anybody been quoted $92 list for air filters? It was tough keeping a straight face and thanking him for his time. Silver Blue 6spd Coupe. Annnnd.....Loving it!

Or if you can hang loose another month or two (hopefully) I'm sure the Turbo kit will send some to the for sale bin.

I found that Auto Parts at AutohausAZ - OEM Auto Parts - Discount Replacement Parts, Resources and Car Care Tips and RockAuto Auto Parts have competitive pricing but you will be charged shipping. Recently I have been looking at both the air and cabin filters and those two places seemed to have pretty good internet pricing. I then started comparing the internet prices to our local (nationwide) parts stores (Auto Zone, O'Reilly, etc.) and found that while the part stores were a tad more expensive per part, you didn't have to pay shipping, so it was worth buying locally.
