OK Here's what I see .. upper right with glove box dropped down.

So maybe that's a filter for when running Recirculate Air???

The screen is hung on two little slanted pegs.

@Galante: THANKS! I see where that cut would be made.. NOW I'm much less Confused about all this.

We live on a very rural road in Vermont USA but we have not been complaining about dust in the truck. IsThere any other consideration such as A/C evap heat exchanger that would benefit from adding a filter??

THANKS to everyone.. this is a great group!

Regards, Terry
That’s not the cabin air filter, thats where it draws the interior air when you’re in recirculate mode, just like the screen it has on the exterior cowl area where it pulls the outside air from. It’s just a screen, and the air from both locations goes through the cabin air filter either before or after it gets heated/cooled and then goes through the ducting and out through the interior vents.
