Think you'll find that is intended for use pre pump not injector with that micron rating. If you can find them over there Bosch does a stock replacement, F0177....cheaper than the 120 odd they want here for an original.

Damn im glad i changed mine like 1000 miles ago. I dont drive the car much so maybe in like 5-10 years ill change it again lol

I might tackle the job myself one day though, unless something else breaks, then im just gonna have it done the same time to save time and headaches.
