AEM Replacement Air Filter?

Hey, took the civic in to get its 65k tune up and they said that the air filter needs to be replaced. It's an AEM cold air intake and I was wondering if it would be better just to buy a new replacement filter for it or to just get the AEM air filter cleaning kit. What do you think?
Also, where's a cheap, reliable place to buy a replacement air filter?
THANKS!

just clean the filter.

its meant to be reused, and its meant to outlast your car, as long as you take care of it.

they should have cleaned it for it. heh.

Just get the kit...

I know K&N has a million mile warranty on theirs.

that's a bit of overkill. K&N suggests that you clean the filter every 50k miles.
i'm pretty sure the aem filter is similar
