Well I just finished. That was pretty easy. Took 10 minutes. I would like to note on my 2004 coupe, there was 3 wires connected to the glove box. I disconnected the one you did but left the others and just installed the filter around them, just a little wiggling and done!

thinkboutit says:

Thank you! I’m about to go install mine in my coupe now! Bought it from Walmart for $16. The fresh breeze one or something..

Great vid series. I’m inspired to take care if that dirty gym sock smell in the cabin now. I know YouTube won’t post links, but can someone recommend an aftermarket filter that’s better than the OEM? I’m getting serious about my air quality and want to know if there’s a product that’s comparable with the best home HEPA electrostatic filters. Time to toss the Christmas Tree air “freshener” and breathe easy. Thanks again

Ross Elliott says:

Excellent video, thanks guys.

Thanks for the video and Eugene. You helped my swap out my clutch and flywheel in the past. I watched this video for my cabin air filter and now I referenced it again for the glove box light. 🙂 Just wanted to say thanks again for all your help with your work and your videos. Cheers!

Great vid. Knew I needed to tackle this when I bought the car this week. It was horribly dirty and only took 10 minutes to replace thank to your help!

Thank you! That was easier than it actually looks in the video. Much appreciated

Justin Taft says:

I unplugged the airbag wire and reattached it and now theres an airbag warning light flashing on the dash, i can just clear this right with an engine decoder ?

Don F says:

Thanks, I was able to do it fairly easily thanks to your video. Also did the engine air filter, thanks again!

TVconrad says:

would it matter if you put it upside down by accident and if you did would you be able to know ? my new cabin charcoal filter doesnt have an direction to put it or any words. doesnt say upside down .. no pointing arrows… someone please help

Randy Godinez says:

followed step by step!! thanks man! i finished as well in less than 15mins it was super dirty down there. the only diference its that mines is nav so it just had a couple clips more but thats no trouble!

ZuluComander says:

i did this but now there is a dash light blinking at me it looks like it has to do with the airbags. i got all the wires plugged back in right how do i reset it

BoingBear35 says:

my cabin air filter didnt have any arrows pointing which way the air flow is flowing. does it matter? i bought an OEM cabin air filter too.

abhele16 says:

can you spray lightly a scent over the filter?

eturkov says:

sorry, looks like I gave you the dimensions for the engine air filter, not the cabin air filter. sorry 🙂

Arrrrgh… Youtube won’t let me post a website address. That description says…
Length: 8 1/2″
Width: 7 13/16″
Thickness: 1 3/16″
which is equivalent to
216mm(length)
198mm(width)
30m­­m(thickness)

SpeedKid117 says:

According to that description and the ones I found elsewhere, the dimensions you’ve kindly given me is way off. Is that the one you’ve really used?

I am not getting this ebay filter but the demensions(inches) in the description states 216mm(length)x198mm(width)x30m­m(thickness) and it fits all 2003-2007 G series.

eturkov says:

28cm x 16.5cm x 3cm (approximate dimensions)

SpeedKid117 says:

Could anyone please tell me the dimensions of that filter? I have to know whether it’s “200mm x 229mm x 30mm” or “200mm x 216mm x 30mm” or something else. Please please anyone, I really need it.

Eugene Torres says:

thanks for this instructional! you saved me a lot of time and money, keep up the good work!

Vin Mega says:

You are the best. You have saved me countless hours keeping my G35 top notch.
Thanks.

I just did this on an 06 g35x. You definitely have to remove the trim pieces because one of the screws (2nd to last in video) is a pain to get to without doing so. Just use some elbow grease and all the pieces pop out without a problem and back in looking clean as stock.

Thanks for cool vid !!!!!!!!!

Thanks for posting. I watched this on my iPhone in the garage and was able to follow your directions step by step. I used a non OEM charcoal filter (dealer wanted $88 for just the filter not including labor).
