Air & Cabin filters? Help for a car newbie!

I had a longer, less curt post but the board isn't working properly. Can anyone direct me to help in changing my 06 LX 4D Civic's air filter? Thanks!

should be just drop the glove box down and it will be behind it? push out the lil holder on each side and the box will fall down. if in doubt, read the owners manual.

I didn't even know there was an air filter for the cabin. I guess never thought about it .

How often should you change it?

They charge an arm and a leg at the dealer for the part and labor to do it. In a place like Los Angeles you need to change it more often.
