I've been shopping around for a transmission fluid filter and gasket combo and I've been running into a couple of cheap ones and expensive one. Are these filters all the same or is there a difference in quality?
So far, I've seen ...
Autozone (AZ transmission filter kit with gasket) $11
Napa Auto Parts (in-house brand) $27 bucks
GMPartsDirect $24
Wix Transmission filter kit $16
Which one would you recommend and if there isn't one on this list, where should I check? Input would be greatly appreciated.

I get the 12 buck special at advance or orielly. Bottom line is if you are changing it at regular intervals, then it shouldnt matter what filter you run. Ever since a put a converter in mine, I change fluid/filter once a year.
