Yes I saw the one offered by RockAuto but the part number they offer is for a slightly earlier model 986xxx the same goes for the MAF offered by Pelican, that is why I was wondering if it makes a difference or not..

I bought mine from Pelican, and since they support this forum its a way of you also supporting the forum.

Pelican is great, I am trying to solve a problem and when I replaced the MAF and there was no improvement everything was still pointing to the MAF so I wrote them asking if they thought the MAF could be bad and they immediately sent me a return authorization with prepaid return postage, and then they delivered a new one to me as well all at no extra cost.

Turns out that this one is the same so I conclude that the first one was probably OK as well.

The great service from Pelican is hard to beat and the prices are good as well.

I'd recommend them as your source for a MAF. Call their service staff to ask for a recommendation on a MAF as they seem to have experts answering the phones about parts compatability.

Even if your part is not listed its still worth a call to see what they recommend.

You are right about Pelican, they have outstanding service..!

My question was because the P/N for the MAF sensor they offer is not the same P/N as the one on my car and I am not sure if they will be 100% compatible..
