Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The filter came in a thin cardboard box with the four copper gaskets. It was correct for my application.
I purchased two Wix 24873 Air Filter Panel, Pack of 1 and these filters are thicker than the Made in the USA Toyota filter and are coated with an antimicrobial treatment and cost less. They are made in Poland and you can see the Wix quality.
I was disappointed that the Fuel filter was made in China so I wrote Wix and here is the reply:
Dear Steven
The email you sent to WIXFILTERS.com was forwarded to my attention. You said you were extremely disappointed by the fact that the 33497 filter you purchased was made in China,

We do have a limited number of suppliers in China who manufacture some low volume fuel and air filters for us. These suppliers are monitored and audited on a regular basis to ensure the quality is acceptable to put the WIX name on it.
