To replace the cabin filter on the Mini, you will need to remove the plastic cover located directly under the glove compartment on the passenger side. Once the cover is removed, you can unclip the two fastening clips that seal the flap of the filter box. By opening it, you will be able to slide out the cabin filter from its housing and replace it with a new spare part.

After replacing the filter, close the flap of the box and reinstall the cover under the glove compartment.
