Unless they fixed it in the past couple months, the purolator didnt fit correctly on my 08 yaris 3 dr. It only engaged 2 threads fully tightened and thats not enough. IMO the base plate is too far below the gasket surface. Youll see on the oem the baseplate is bumped UP towards the gasket surface instead of concave. I like purolator but this just didnt fit.
