Stupid question..........Is it easy to replace? I did one on the PT Cruiser I traded, and tore my hands to bits.

It's a piece of cake Dave.

Empty the glovebox.
You will find a tab on each side that you can push that will let the glove box down.

Then you will find a couple more tabs to pull down and the filter slides right out.

Takes about 5 min to do.

For those of you who want OEM parts, you might want to check this web site out.
Last I looked their pricing was pretty close to what I pay as a GM employee.

HonestBlues....I think your dealer is "sticking" you . Retail is something like $26 for the cabin filter. That was what it was when I bought one about 2 weeks ago....my price was less than half of that

Thanks Deb...just providing another resource.

But, watch the shipping charges. They could get expensive unless you buy over $100, then it's free.

fleetfilter.com is another site to get them from. $10.46 for a Wix cabin filter (plus shipping).

Thanks Deb. If it takes you five minutes, I better count on two hours at least.

I just checked mine. Very easy to get to. Most difficult thing was dumping out all the stuff in the glove box.
