Today, we will see the steps that will allow us to remove and replace the cabin air filter in an Opel Astra. First, get inside the cabin and start by opening the glove compartment, unscrewing the fixing screws found inside; once the glove compartment is removed, we will take off the cover of the filter box, thus extracting the cartridge, as shown in the video.
