this is one of the easiest things you can replace in your car. my honda civic at its regular oil change, the dealer informed me @ xxxxx miles you should replace the cabin air filter. when i asked how much, they told me it was going to be around $120. i refused recalling that i saw a very simple DIY on [...] and so my plan to save $100 dollars began.

you take out your glove compartment box, by squeezing the ends of the sides and move the glove box towards you and the cabin air filter box should be exposed. remove the cabin air filter from the car, take out the air filter and put in your new and clean wix filter you bought at amazon. now you simply put eveything back the way it was and you're done! simple enough right?

the quality of this filter imo is good, it feels like the OEM filter from honda. so far i have no problems. my last words for this review is to spray the filter with febreeeze or put dryer sheets around the filter (tight squeeze) so whenever you turn on your a/c it smells like a fresh scent. i put dryer sheets in mine so my car smells like fresh laundry when the a/c is on :)

I'm embarrassed to say that I did not even know my Honda Civic had an air filter for the cabin. My BMW and Audi in the past had them, but I just assumed that the inexpensive Honda did not have anything. When I went to buy an engine air filter on Amazon, I thought it was a joke that they were pairing the item with a cabin air filter. Well, no joke, the Honda Civic has a cabin filter and it's hidden away in a little drawer tucked behind the glove box. It was very easy to replace, once I knew that it was in there. You just open your glove box, push in the sides a little bit so the stoppers will let it swing all the way down, and then you will see the black face of the drawer for the filter behind. It just slides right out, swap out the new filter for the dirty one, and slide it back in. The only thing to watch for is to make sure the arrows showing the flow of air are lined up together. The drawer in the Honda had the arrow for airflow pointing downward, so I made sure the arrow on the side of the air filter was also pointing downward when I installed it.

That's it. Ten minute job at most, even if you take time to explore around behind your glovebox.

I purchased my 2009 Honda Accord EX-L in March 2009 and drive it around Virginia every day; almost 40k miles in one year! Needless to say I like to invest in good parts and keep it well maintained. I was amazed at how much debris got into the OEM cabin air filter in just the first year. I had a 2002 Accord coupe before purchasing this vehcile and remember the cabin air filter being much harder to change. NOT the case with the 2009 Accord. In a matter of 2-3 minutes TOPS I had the old filter out and the new one installed. You basically just disconnect the side glove box connector, squeeze in the sides of the glvoe box and voila the glove box folds down. Pull out the filter box by pushing in the compression clips and out it comes. When I started my engine and turned on the AC I could immediately tell the difference in the better smell.

I am going to change this out at least once per year from now on. You save around $50 doing it yourself!
