Re: Replaced my cabin air filter, first time in 3 yrs.
I just checked mine this morning and low and behold it needs to be changed. There was a freaking dead bee in mine along with the standard leaves and whatnot.

Thanks for asking, I appreciate the support. it's goin, little by little. Christian Calim just asked me the same thing, I'm getting the front bumper on very very soon (maybe within a month.) Then after that, 2k high build, then block. I still have a lot of things I have to buy. When I get something good going, I'll definitely post it all up here.
What about you? Got anything goin on with your ride?

Well, I finally got my camber kit yesterday and wasn't able to install it, because I don't have air tools. I'm trying to find a spot that will work on my lowered car and install the camber kit and then an alignment, preferably a lifetime alignment.
Um, that's basically it. I just got a job, so I may be spending my paychecks on the payments for this car and maybe some on parts. We'll see. lol.

No problem. That's great that you are still getting somewhere. It'll come out nice in the end. I'll be waiting for some updates and some pictures (of your car, of course). lol. Good luck man.

alot of people take theirs out. cause if you think about it, you will always have the best airflow. and its no different than driving with your windows open. older cars didnt even come with em. its mainly for people with bad allergies that drive with window closed all the time.

yea to my knowledge you just open the glove box and pull the tabs on the sides of the glove box and pull towards you and then the filters should be right there...
now do it yourself
naw but seriously i think thats all you have to do. at least thats what someone said that they are located there in a previous post.

Depending where you go they will either be cheap or expensive. I work at a lube shop and I know that Cabin filters they make a lot of money off of. On average they call Cabin filters for about $60. They are right behind the glove box. Get the two tabs out on the side and you can get access to it real easy. If you leave the cabins a long time you are risking blowing your fan motor. If you dont want to buy new ones just vacum them or out something.
