Don't know the best place but remember you need both the new fuel filter head and new fuel heater wiring (68043089AA and 68043086AA, respectively). The new filter head comes with a new filter and WIF sensor installled; save your old WIF just in case. The new wiring colors don't match the current wiring; just hook up by matching as close as possible wire size. As I recall you have to feed the new wires thru the new plug from the front and then snap the blue wire retainer on; before wiring in of course.

Best place should cost under $120 for both but prices can be all over the map and some do include the wiring in the pkg price. Kicker on bottom line can be shipping. FYI on single items I've found my friendly local DCJ parts manager can often essentially price match by the time you figure shipping from an online place.

Don't waste your time with a 2nd generation OEM product and get a Racor 245 which was the original filter on the export models until Jeep bean counters got cheap.

http://liberty.eurekaboy.com/racor.htm Its a thing of beauty and with Omega sensor, works perfectly.

Don't forget to install a lift pump. An upgraded filter is only half of the equation to give yourself a reliable and trouble free fuel system.
