I should have clarified myself a bit more. I meant that I would need a straight edge to keep my cut running in a straight line. I can't freehand a straight line with a Rotozip to save my life.

I dont think ANYONE can hahaha. Those things are super squirrelly, but its easy to follow as the others have said.

Are those of you that have the cabin filter removing and reinstalling this kick panel / cover every filter change? Or does it go to the extraneous parts bin?

It’s cosmetic mostly but will protect the assembly from passengers with size 12 and up.

Hot razor knife, that’s the key! I’m not doing a hacksaw blade this time.

I kept mine.

It is not only cosmetic and protective but also helps reduce noise from the blower motor.

You can take the 2 screws out that are easily accessible and drop it down and out of the way to change the filter without having to mess with the third screw behind the console... just FYI.

I only put two screws back in thecopcar. Right now it’s just sitting in place in theothertwin, since I think I need some actuator attention.

I don't recall removing that kick plate to install the filter. Maybe, my mind is failing me here.
