Balwins come with lid attached and are costing me about $24 apiece. I change every 10k miles.

I usuall don't have much luck at the junk yards, but I did just see two PSD trucks ('04 and '05) a week or so ago. Most of the body parts were stripped and one was just the cab, but the other still had the engine there. I bet I could have gotten the air filter lid for next to nothing. I'll head back Monday and grab it if it is still there. Its yours if you want it, if not I'll hold onto it "just in case."

Oh well, I tried.
