Manual says I need to change the filter element---can anyone point me in the right direction for this part?  I'd like to DIY

I got mine from www.kymcopartsmonster.com (http://www.kymcopartsmonster.com). Just look up your model and find the part you want. I've bought several things from them and had good luck. The one I bought was part #17211-LGE55-E00. I think it was about $30.00.

Awesome--thanks!  Is this something crucial to replace per the manual....or can I skip it for now (odo reading 3000 miles now)

       I bought mine just to have when I needed it. Odometer reading is not a accurate determining factor for a air filter. It would get a lot dirtier riding 3000 miles on dirt roads than 3000 miles on paved roads. My rule of thumb with my vehicles is to take the air cleaner off. Hold a lit light bulb behind it. If you can see light coming through, the air can get through. only extreme conditions would dictate replacement at 3000 miles in my opinion.
