How to replace the cabin filter of the Ford Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Cabin air filter

To replace the pollen filter of the Ford Focus, go to the lower part where the pedals are located, and unscrew the 3 nuts holding the accelerator pedal using a 10mm socket; once the nuts are removed, shift the pedal without disconnecting the connector. Then, unscrew the 3 bolts holding the pollen filter cover with a 7mm socket and remove it; after removing the cover, take out the pollen filter as well. Now, take the new pollen filter out of the packaging, position it the same way as the old one, replace the cover, and screw it back on (the lower bolt should be positioned towards the engine) and finally reposition the accelerator pedal by tightening the nuts.
