Nice thing about Auto Parts Stores is they have a choice of brands.
Wix (aka Napa Gold) seems to fare well when people cut them open.

I use either one. It's hard to explain without a picture but the Wix
base plate is punched and threaded from the outside, while some are from

I bought my Toy filters from the dealer by the case for a great price and
included the crush washer in them.
