Replaced mine today with ACDelco CF182, as it has been found the ACDelco "professional" or "gold" CF1182 is poor fitting. Many here in the states have freaked out over how dirty and black the OE ACDelco CF182 filter looked, unaware of the fact that it is charcoal infused and the replacement CF182 is not.

I put RCA162M in my car. Nice snug fit. The foam seals really nice.

I’ve got two on the way, even though I have a few AC Delco ones in the cupboard. One for the E3 HSV which doesn’t get a lot of use, and the other for my VF daily driver.

First up, if your buying anything from automotive superstore, check they have product in stock, as it was about a 4 week wait for mine!
Second, dont buy a K&N cabin filter. They are poorly made. The rubber surround had lots of defects with a lot of left over rubber on the edges which wasn't trimmed and neatened and has quite a few little craters/bubbles. It is harder to manipulate into position, as it doesn't bend and twist as easily as paper. But the worst part, slightly twisting it caused the top rubber seal to split half way through. It wont affect the filtering but what a pos. I'd send it back, but im sure they'd say I bent it in half so I'll just soldier on. Pictures can just stay on my camera for now. Over it.
