Are the cabin filters behind the glove box? I pulled the box out tonight and they are (maybe) behind a black door-filters run longitudinally. Is that right? What is the best way to pop the door to replace them?
Where is the charcoal filter and how do I get it out?
thanks

I got the cabin filters out-dirty. Still want to find the charcoal one.

charcoal is under the dash, passenger side.

The ordinary filters are under the dash behind the glove box. Is the charcoal just above the foot well-below the glove box?
Thanks

I understand. I need to pull the plastic panel below the dash and get the charcoal filters from below.
Thanks
