Cabin Air Filter Retrofit

Wylie_Tahoe said:

I ordered a replacement filter for my new to me 2012 and was quite surprised to find it did not have the filter option. Box is clearly molded as if it was an option.

Ordered the retro kit and will make the mod next week.

I added the filter kit to our 08 YXL and realized I should have bought a hot knife off Amazon for $20. I used a blade & hack saw last time. It was a PITA.

When it gets installed in the Esky I’ll use the time saved with the hot knife to clean off the evap coils before the filter goes in. What if you drove your house on the freeway at 70 mph for 10+ years without a HVAC filter. It gets nasty in there.

I think I need to pull and vacuum mine, not blowing so hard as usual….the only drawback is a little Reduced flow With the filter.
