Ron (and Vanagon list):

I discovered, when I held up the VW (which I bought in a better-safe-than-sorry panic) and Mann filters side by side that they look almost indentical inside, and I knew that my fears were unfounded.

I hope I didn't sound like I was questioning the professional judgement of the Bus Depot. Even if it had been the wrong filter-- heck, everyone makes mistakes and ultimately the _installer_ of the part should not be acting in blind faith, but should be absolutely sure that what's being installed is the correct part. But it is the right part, and once again I am a satisfied customer. 'nuff said.

Marcus Elia '84 Westy with absolutely no corporate interest in Ron's company whatsoever. I live in Canada, after all!
