Step 1: Locate the Cabin Filter
The first step in replacing your car's cabin filter is to locate where it is situated. The location of the cabin filter varies depending on the make and model of your vehicle. Usually, the cabin filter is found under the dashboard on the passenger's side of the car. If you are unsure of where it is located, consult your owner's manual or do a quick internet search.
Step 2: Remove the Old Filter
Once you have located the cabin filter, you'll need to remove the old filter. The cabin filter usually has a clip that secures it in place. Gently unclip the filter and pull it out.

After installing the new cabin filter, test it by turning the air conditioning or heat on full blast. If you notice that the air feels cleaner and smells fresher, then you have successfully replaced your car's cabin filter.
Step 5: Replace Your Cabin Filter Regularly
Cabin filters should be replaced regularly. Replacing the cabin filter regularly ensures the optimal functioning of the air conditioning and heating systems while keeping the air in your car fresh and clean.
