Is this a genuine LR fuel filter?

I bought a fuel filter online the other day; its arrived today, but I'm not convinced its genuine LR?

THe box is, but I would of expected the filter to have a LR badge on there? Photos below:

Well Delphi are one of the 2 OEM filter manufacturers so I would be happy.

It is a genuine LR one Thumbs Up

Alternatively, you could have bought a Delphi one, at half the price Whistle My D3 Build Thread

I think the britpart one is under £14, which seems pretty reasonable. I think LR wanted £67 for the honour!

I use them daily. Never had an issue with them once fitted... Smile

In saying that though, I had a britpart one for an 05/06MY that didnt fit 1 of the pipes, and all of the 07MY.on ones need a little 'modification' to fit Laughing My D3 Build Thread
