Cabin Air Filter
#3
I've looked into this several times after seeing a part number in a NAPA catalogue when i was looking for my main air filter. JTIS doesnt have it either, I've never been ambitious enough to figure out where it is located even. I presume under the glove box? Any advice would be greatly appreciated here too!

It's located under the passenger side windscreen cowl (black plastic cover at the base of the windshield).
-lift hood
-undo 4 of the five fasteners that hold the cowl at the engine bay side (start from passenger side)
-gently lift the cowl from the engine bay side, trying to avoid unclipping it from the windscreen
-you should see the pollen filter and be able to pull it out
and check for any foreign objects
-insert the new filter making sure you have the airflow in the proper direction.
-re-install the fasteners

Like MOHRD says, open the hood, look for the black fascia that the windshield wiper posts come through. It's held in place by 1/4 turn fasteners, undo them all and go to the passengers side on the outside and gently lift the fascia enough to fit your arm in. Directly in front of the passenger seat is the cabin filter it just comes out. If you can reach around and clean out any leaves and debree that is sitting in there.
When you put the fascia back make sure you positioon it right up against the windshield when you turn the fasteners.
