Default Pentius Air Filters

Anyone heard of or used these air filters before? I see that Checker/Schuck's/Kragen/Murray's/O'Reilly Auto Parts carry them.

Here is their website:

Also, I've never replaced the air filter/cleaner element before. How easy/difficult is it to do? I searched for a DIY, but didn't find anything.

If it's anything like replacing it on my Acura Integra, I'm going to need instructions.

I ended up buying a Microgard air filter. They didn't have any Frams or Pentius filters in stock in the model that I needed.

Microgard is made by Purolator, and it appears to be well constructed.

I also found out that replacing the air filter is as easy as removing four screws... thank goodness I didn't need to disconnect anything.

After I removed the Honda air filter, I noticed that it actually wasn't too bad, so I left it in. I'll replace it after another 15k miles.
