6637 filter Install Questions

I just went to Napa and got my first 6637 and I was looking at my factory airbox. I know I have to relocate the meter on the box to the end of the filter and I read how to do that on someone's "how to" board the other day. My question is, what do you do with the other sensor that is on the backside (closest to the cab) of the factory airbox.
Oh yeah, is $49 about right for a 6637 filter?

That sensor on the back side can just be zip-tied up somewhere near the firewall around where the brake resevior is at....basically in that general area.

$49 sounds about right from a local NAPA store, but you can save $10-$15 by ordering from fleetfilter.com

Good to know. I will use that website next time. Any idea how much life I can expect on my filter doing mostly city type driving(without F 250"s fancy cover )? I do go to the horse farm several times a week but it's typically not too dusty.
