Air filter for 2005 Inspire

I know this has been answered before, however, I don't have the info.
Looking for the air filter replacement for 2005 Inspire with C-9 Cat engine. What would be the part number to cross reference with like NAPA or other local parts store.

Additionally how hard is it to change out the filter by myself?

Jock,

I have changed out my air filter a couple of times, for me it takes about two hours.
To get the best access to the upper clamp of the filter, I remove the mud flap.
It is difficult to see, reach and remove the upper filter clamp. Also, there is about six inches of play in the upper ducting, so you can lower and slightly turn the filter to get it in the best position to reach the clamp. Care must be taken to not puncher the upper ducting. If you are agile you might be able to save time by not removing the mud flap.
Country Coach did us no favor in the 05 Inspire air filter design.

Wow - the air filter change on my 2004 Cummins ISC takes at most 45 minutes and no flap removal required. The filter in the Cat must be buried.

Jock;

The filter is easy to change. There are three large hose clamps on the air piping and two hand release retaining clamps on the filter.
It can be a little tricky getting the top hose back onto the new filter but it is doable.
I buy my filters from Inland Truck Parts & Service in Irving Texas 1-972-438-1406.
The air filter is AH8501.
