Here ya go. Buy them off ebay, but make sure you buy a pair of filters. I will be doing this myself shortly as I am almost at 30,000 miles.

I also bought them online for $11.00 Canadian (US $9.68) for the pair. The installation takes about 5 minutes. You need a pair because that's the way the system was constructed.

Because there are 2 filters loaded back to back in the housing that need to be replaced at the same time.

Just out of curiosity, I had a look at mine, just to see what was involved. I think the hardest part was pushing in the tabs in order to remove the glove box stops!

If the posts are correct and the dealers want $50-100 to replace, I can deal with a couple of sore thumbs! Screw those guys! :razz:

Yeah, it is a pretty easy change, imho.:) Not worth paying the dealer to do it.
