Review on 🚗 Premium 2 Pack White FD811 Cabin Air Filter for Mazda 3, 6, CX-5 - Replaces CF11811, KD45-61-J6X by Chris Castro

There was another review here that mentioned that this filter does not look like an OEM filter and only has a foam seal on 2 sides, not 4. That review was correct. I went to the dealer to change the air filters (handy for all maintenance); but due to exceptionally poor air quality from several wildfires (2020 California Bay Area) I want to change the cabin air filter more often and don't want to pay the dealer price. That's why I ordered this filter. It's easy to replace, but you need a screwdriver and you need to clean the glove box. Aside from looking different than the OEM, it still fits the bay nicely. Edges without a foam seal (OEM seals all around, this filter only partially) can let larger particles through (I hope the vacuum helps seal better). I don't have a good way of measuring the air quality inside my car; Dust is everywhere anyway because I like to open windows. I'm not sure I'll keep buying this brand (it's very cheap compared to OEM but it looks buggy).
