Are they all like this now?
 
I had no trouble reading the upside-down filters.
Perfect. I took the others down since you let us know you had no trouble viewing them. I only posted them rightside up for your benefit.

Eh, not a big change.

I am still more bummed out about the new designs on the box that AC Delco filters come in. Major downgrade!
 
the last (2) FL500's I bought in the fall timeframe did have the sticker. I cut one open recently and it seemed decent still. It's a $5 filter so I won't complain.

just my $0.02
 
Been quite a few threads about the Motorcraft filter design change - dome end flutes, decals on can, louvers instead of holes, etc.
 
I hope they improved the sloppy construction of an 820S where it counts, not just a pretty logo.
 
I came to this thread because I got my first "new" FL820S a couple of weeks ago from Amazon and just noticed the flute difference. I was concerned it might be a knockoff, because...well...Amazon. Good to know it was just a running change.
