Need to replace the cabin filter on an Opel Astra? Follow these steps. Unscrew the securing screws on the sides of the glove compartment located at the bottom of the dashboard (right side); pull it out from the dashboard and the vehicle.

Remove the cap from the filter holder (push the plastic clip), then extract the worn cabin filter. Insert a new cabin filter, ensuring it fits snugly around the walls of the box; reattach the filter box cap, reinstall the glove compartment, and secure it with screws.

Check the correct installation of the previously mounted parts.
