Anyone else ever put in or replaced their cabin filter, thought it would be a simple task but it turned out to be a bit of a pain had to cut out the insert and broke the filter putting it in haha. At the end of the day it's done, anyone else tried this or have tips for future changes. Pretty big mess too bunch of leaves and debris fell on my face

 

I need to do this as the air coming out of my vents is stale, def needs done.

 

Lol i didnt even know our era had them. Good to know!

Yeah, where are they? On hondas their behind the glove box. Others have them behind the cowl in the engine compartment, but ive never seen one in either.

 

Do they even sell the kit anymore? I heard it was discontinued back in 04 when the new body style came out.

 

It's right above where the passenger's feet would be, you have to remove the black cover (7mm socket, 3 screws, there currently is no filter so you need to manually cut the cap to the filter compartment with a sharp blade it's a pain in the ***. The cap pops off, be ready for debris to fall, it can be a pain to put the filter in to especially if you snap it like I did. The filter you get should have a black seal and cap on the bottom with a tab for easier future removal, good luck.

 

I'd like to do this. Where did you get the filter?

Per website: "The air you breathe inside your vehicle is 6x more polluted than the air outside."
That's pretty disgusting, def doing this.
