I bought a K&N air filter when the car was new. Got it on sale at AutoZone for about $40.00. I slip the still clean OEM filter in while cleaning and drying the K&N.
Also, I bought a case (10 lot) of OEM oil filters from Connecilli Toyota (through eBay). It worked out to ~$5.00 per filter mailed to home. These are ~$8.50 at Ontario stealerships.

A little late now, but be warned that the oiled engine air filters is the main cause of the the MAF meters to get dirty and fail. It's caused by the microscopic droplets of oil depositing on the hot wire inside the MAF meter causing a buildup and eventually cause it to fail.
