The made-in-Thailand filter is the replacement filter for the JDM one which comes on our car from the factory. JDM filters are extremely hard to find in the US and most dealers don't stock them. Even when ordering online with the correct part number (90915-10004), you may still receive the replacement filter (ask me how I know

). I ended up ordering directly from a Toyota dealer and made the parts guy make sure they were indeed the JDM ones.

The made-in-Thailand filter should not be more than $5 and the JDM filter is around $8.50.
