Default 02 46re trans filter

I am going to change filter and fluid in trans tomorrow and have read that some 3rd gens have 2 internal filters curious if that is the case for the 46re in the 02?

IDK about the 02 but I know my 04 has two filters. When I bought them from AZ they came with both. So Im sure if you go in to buy the filters it would be the same for you.
