Replacing the cabin air filter in a Nissan Altima is a very simple task; let's see how to proceed in this tutorial. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the three screws located beneath the glove compartment, open the drawer, and remove the other three upper screws and the two internal ones.

At this point, also remove the side panel of the dashboard and pull out the entire compartment towards you. On the left wall, you can notice a rectangular door; open it by pressing the lower clip, remove the filter, and insert the replacement, making sure it is oriented correctly.

Finally, reassemble everything by following the reverse procedure.
