There is a foam overlay on the bottom of the OEM filter that is glued to the paper material. That is the OEM filter.

If you have a reusable bonnet, I haven't heard of that as an OEM product, as that is the first I have ever heard of that.

As I reported above, here are the OEM replacement filters:

W8800481 Air Filter-With Foam Cover Workhorse
A1236C Air Filter-With Foam Cover AC Delco

2006 Winnebago Voyage 35A
W-22 Chassis

The "foam" this poster is talking about is the complete bottom part of the filter and is glued on. These are OEM.

It sounds like the OP's filter has a removable/stretchable foam bonnet that fits around the filter.

yes, that is what mine is. it looks like a house a/c filter black in color and it has sides all around. i have been taking it off washing it and once dried i stretch it over a napa 6144 air filter until the next change
