Cabin Air Filter Replacement

Model: Mazda Rx 8 MK 1 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Cabin air filter

Obtain a pollen filter of the same model identical to the original. These filters can be easily found on various online sales sites. The pollen filter purifies the air in the cabin and is located under the glove compartment on the passenger side, enclosed in a container that is easy to identify. To access it, you need to remove the clips that secure the glove compartment. After removing the filter cover, take out the filter by carefully pulling it outwards to avoid dust dispersal. To do this, place a cloth on the bottom to catch any dirt. Reinsert the new filter into its housing and carefully close the cover.
