Most places have the same prices that you can get them at a Mazda dealership.

I usually just call the local dealership and order them with a credit card and just have them shipped to me (or pick them up if I'm that bored).

At the dealer they give you a price break if you buy 3 or more. I think they were less than $5. Screw buying them online, it's one of the few parts worth going to the dealer for.

Call Ray at Malloy Mazda in Woodbridge Va. He'll charge you 20% above cost which is about 4.00 a filter. Also consolidate the shipping charge with some fuel filters and plugs etc...
