K & N filters
Does anyone know if or when K&N is making a air filter for the V10 motor home engines?

I had one on my 2009 VW Jetta that we bought used. I didn't know anything about them at the time so I took it out and was getting ready to clean it. I noticed that I could literally see through the filter....clearly.... And it had at least 20k miles on it at the time.
My brain started to ask questions like.... If light can easily pass through this filter(I held the filter up and I could see stars in the sky) ... What can small particles of dirt do?
Never mind that the filter housing was filthy downstream from the filter... I concluded that this is hype and I discarded the filter and replaced it with a paper filter.
What gain do I have by owning a filter that makes more work for me, Allows more dirt in to my motor, and does nothing positive for my vehicle?
Thanks,
