Message	The 60U00 filter is made by Wix for Nissan, and that there is a corresponding Wix part number, which is the exact same filter but without Nissan packaging. As such it would also meet the OEM 60U00 specs. The trouble is making sure you actually get the correct filter, since there are a number of filters that fit, but only one that is exactly like the 60U00.
