Where to buy OEM air filters?

Any online vendors sell OEM air filters? Or my only option is go to the dealership?

Various dealerships sell through their online parts departments.

OK, but no 3rd party vendors (e.g. any sponsors here)?

The STP air filter from AutoZone or the Purolator from Advance both work just fine and they are around $12

I just found the Purolator cabin filter this weekend while I was at Pep Boys. It looks just like the OEM but a lot less expensive. It was $16.99 minus a $5 mail in rebate that's currently being offered. It looks like a good quality filter and Purolator products are generally very good (plus it's made in the USA) so I'll give it a try.

Sewell Infiniti sells G37 OEM engine air filters online at a discount (16.93 each plus shipping).

These filters come with a 12 month/12K mile warranty from the date of purchase. So don't stock up on them. Just buy them when you need them to take advantage of the warranty.

What warranty issues do you possibly forsee from an air filter?

I can foresee MAF sensor issues from a filter that doesn't fit exactly right.

If your vehicle is out of warranty, the filter warranty might come in handy.

I saw those but I don't think OES Genuine = Nissan/Infiniti OEM.

Update: Bought OEM air filters from Riverside. They were a tad cheaper than Sewell.
