Any given Manufacturer's bottom line is usually dictated by profit.
If there is a market for a product, they will develop it, produce it, and sell it.

At some point the demand for any one of their products may diminish to the point where it is no longer profitable to continue manufacturing it, the simply wait until on hand inventory is gone before they officially discontinue it.

My GUESS it that is what has happened to the part number in question. I also doubt that K&N would have ever produced an air filter specifically for the Prowler due to the low production volume for the cars to begin with.

Fortunately for Prowler owners, my GUESS is that the Prowler shared the same filter as another product with higher production numbers, like their Mini Vans from that time period.

Now that those vehicles are older, the demand for filters has likely decreased to the point that continued production is no longer profitable.

My Suggestion would be to look at places such as E-Bay and search the part number since some sellers purchase bulk lots of discontinued merchandise and list it in that format.

P.S.
I went to the K&N Website and the only filters they list for a 2002 Chrysler Prowler are Oil Filters which is weird because when I look at the 30-10018 filter on flea bay, the number shows up and the 2002 Prowler is in the application chart associated with that number....Going back to the K&N website entering the 30-10018 number yields no result for me. Maybe I am just not savvy enough to figure it out, go figure.
