Default looking for recommendations on air filters

hey y'all -

i was wondering if anyone had a recommendation for a replacement cabin air filter for my 2001 xj sport? there's so much salt on the roads up here in the great white north that it's getting into the cabin when i turn on the heater - i need something better than the factory-grade replacement i currently have.

thanks and stay cozy!

I don't think a 2001 Cherokee has a cabin air filter.

There is no cabin air filter, however there is a media type filer behind the vents

Edit: I found this too http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f11/w...-00-xj-605958/
