To replace the cabin filter of the BMW X1, you will need to loosen the screws that secure the panel located at the bottom of the glove compartment on the passenger side: once this panel has been freed from the corresponding screws and the underlying cover has been removed, it will be possible to pull out the air filter from its housing.

This way, you can insert the new replacement part: by doing so, you can close everything with the cover and then also reinstall the dashboard panel to check that everything is functioning properly.
