On top of that most people don't keep vehicles around long enough to try and justify a cost savings over buying filters. The housing is cool and looks better then the standard oil filter.

The video showing how to clean the piece to me looks like a pain. Plus you will need additional brake cleaner to get the job done along with soap, water, and compressed air. Plus it doesn't make the job any easier or less expensive. Other then the cool housing I don't see the point in the hassle.
Do you?

I'm still a a ways out from needing a filter. LOL


It was something I grabbed to read up on later. My only thought is if i'm doing multiple filter changes a year (2-3) maybe more if i really start to track my car. Why not buy once cry once and then I'm not spending $30-$40+ a year in filters.
