hey guys,

I have been noticing a stank coming from my ac and thought it would be a good idea to change out my cabin air filter.

Does anyone have a how to for the job?

It will be identical. Its not hard, just tight quarters down in the footwell.

WOW! I didnt realize that it would be that involved. I changed it in my 06 civic, it took less than 5 mins and no tools.

Yeah, the PITA part is you have to remove the mount for the fuse box. :rant:

And take precious service dollars away from the dealership? I think not.

Sometimes AC can get a stale smell going. I spray some lysol in the air intakes and smells go away.
