03 Boxster oil filter wrench
Anybody knows an online or a physical place in Canada where I can buy an oil filter wrench (cup)? Tried many autoparts, Walmart, Canadian Tire places in Quebec city area, nothing! Specs. are 74mm & 14 flute.
Thanks for your help!

It's difficult to find an aftermarket one and most of the plastic one are worthless, If you find an aftermarket one make sure it's metal. I bought mine from the dealer ....

Just throwing this out: Why not use the getto way after all you're not going to reuse the filter are ya... use a big jaw pliers to gently squeeze the top of the filter where the wrench (cup) would go... turning slighlty will loosen any filter, then use your hands to finish removing the filter.

How about using one of those ruber belt wrenches they sell at CT, the BMW guys use em but you need to keep oil way from the belt.
