i find it funny how some of you guys think $15 is crazy for an oil filter.

All E9x cars use the same filter.

And if you want to avoid spilling oil from the housing, unscrew it and pull it up a little in one shot...dont push it back in because then the oil will spill over the side. Prop it up by sticking a screwdriver down in the oil to support the cap..so when you drain the oil, what ever is in the filter housing will drain too.
