NPN Filters

Has anyone ever heard or used NPN oil filters. I got great deal on them. Paid 8.00 for a case, but I can't seem to find in info on them.

Used car dealership that is closing it's doors was selling autoparts and they had tons of oil filters and it so happened that one of the cases fit the VQ. Couldn't pass up the deal. Seems like service centers are going thru hard times.............

I wouldn't pass on a deal like that either, I'm a bargain shopper when it comes to parts. Everyone is going through hard times. The stock market seems to be bouncing back, so things should be getting better economy wise which will equal more business.
