Part: Cabin air filter

Open the glove compartment located in front of the front passenger seat and to remove it, press on the sides and pull down to extract it. Now remove the two screws indicated in the video, take off the black sponge panel covering the filter cover, and rotate the plastic screw in the centre a quarter turn to remove the two filter covers. Now simply extract the old filter and insert the new one, ensuring it is positioned in the same direction as the old one, which should be indicated on the side of the filter.
