Received the parts from FCPEuro and they were indeed Meyle, they didn't send me TRWs like Steved0X received.

I didn't know how much shorter the front ones were until now.

Spin-On Filters Inspections

Hi,
How many of you have the LN Spin-On Filter adapter installed?

Do you cut your spin-on filter open to check for debits on each oil change?
If so, what are you using to cut the metal filter?

The enthusiast version of the Durametric cable can enable OBC but not cruise control on the 986/996
It's almost like a tease, I would have bought it if it did both.
