I guess I could have purchased the $50 cover with the course filter from BMW, and hoped that it would last a few years - again, but found that a 50-cent Scotch Brite 9" x 6" pad trimmed down to 9" x 4.2", fits well (snug) into the cover without collapsing, but allowing no pressure difference (e.g no air flow restriction)...no more leaves, and more importantly, no more "jet engine" sound when the fan is on Max setting.
I was looking for something like that, but could only find the smaller size... what a great option!!!
