Will buy one and fit in.
Where did you get exhaust and what was it worth?
Are the chips and plug ins worth the money?

cheers

After some research via USA forums it turns out all Commanders run the same air filter.
A word of warning on K&N filters and other similar re-usable air filters is they're OK for standard highway use but don't use them off road as they're not too good at filtering out the finer particles. So on a dusty trail your car will suffer. I always change to the good old fashion paper filter when I'm 4wding.

a quick note , if your engine light stays on it is most likely caused when KN filter is dirty , mine works great but needs to be cleaned more frequently than the standard filters (slight increase in economy is a hint to clean) It might only be my jeep.

Had one on my WG, buggered the air flow/mass sensor, only use paper ones now.
