The napa filter was the filter that was in between the two you see. They nolonger have the napa filters that were carbon. My best bet is to go for the activated charcoal filter which is the genera filter.

Thanks for the DIY. I don't understand why Inifinti makes this process so hard! It takes like 3 minutes without any screws on my girlfriend's accord.

Thanks for sharing. I was wondering when you would suggest changing the cabin air filter and the engine air filter? I saw somebody suggest 15K miles, is this about right? I only have 5220 miles on mine right now, I've only changed the oil so far.
