Default Oil-less filter to replace K&N "FIPK" filter?

I know... basic question... but wondering what you guys have found that replaces the K&N oiled filter that comes with their "FIPK" kits. I've been on a few sites like airaid, etc but I haven't been able to find an oil-less filter with the same dimensions as the K&N. And I really don't think anything bigger will fit in there.

Check AEM, they have some nice dry filters. You'd just have to measure your k&n filter and match up the measurements.

Which sites (other than Airaid) have you checked? The others I know of are AEM, Amsoil, and Spectre. None of them have as extensive a selection as K&N does, though.

That about completes the list, I think. What I'm having trouble finding is a filter with the same dimensions (externally, as well as the inlet/opening diameter). I'll take another look sometime soon. Just wondered if anyone here could make a quick suggestion.

Amsoil filters are excellent.
