If you want to eliminate airborne contaminants in your car, getting a new cabin filter from Filterheads.com is the way to go.
The cabin filter can be found on the left corner of the footwell, and here’s how you can replace it:
- Locate the filter housing cover, which has a screw on the bottom requiring a 7/64th hex driver to remove.
- Remove the filter housing door by pinching the sides at the tabs and pulling down to release the securing tabs from their catch.
- Take out the panel from the glovebox assembly.
- Remove the old filter from the housing and ensure to clean out any debris inside.
- Install your new AQ1211 filter into the housing with its airflow indicating arrow pointing towards the back of the car. Installation is made easier if you pinch the sides down, and it’s important to position the hard sides on the top and bottom with the pleats vertical.
- Slide the housing cover into position and press to lock it in place. Then, reinstall the housing door screw and the footwell panel, ensuring to secure the tabs on the screws.
Make sure to visit Filterheads.com to order your filter and ensure a perfect fit.
