Expose two filter blocks from the same view using drupal 7 ? I'm not sure how to overcome this. So far I have managed to do it by simply duplicating the view, but this is not a good idea. 

The view needs to have two exposed filters. These blocks are styled different and sit in different parts of the site, so they need to be independent.

Is it possible to expose two filter blocks from one view?
An alternative to this is to 


Clone your page display - but do not change the cloned pages path...
Override and modifty the filters for that cloned display


You will have an exposed block with different filters that submits to the original view.
