Sonata Oil filter Removal

I am looking for an "cap" style oil filter wrench that will work with my 2008 Sonata with a 2.4.



I have a cap wrench for a WIX 51348 filter, but it is too small. I tried all the ones I could find at NAPA, Autozone, and O'reilly, and none of them fit.



The WIX filter for this Sonata is 51334.



Is there such a wrench that will fit?



How do dealers and other shops remove the filter without having to remove the entire splash shield?



Thanks,



Kirk M

is very effective. There's a 3/8 square hole for extension on the side youcannot see.
