In this tutorial, you will see how to replace the cabin air filter in the Toyota Highlander, a very simple and quick operation. The first thing to do, since the filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, is to remove the corresponding drawer.

To do this, open it and unclip the two pins by pressing the corners inwards. Once it is laid on the ground, open the long rectangular door and proceed with replacing the filter, ensuring that the replacement is positioned in the correct orientation.

Finally, reassemble everything by following the reverse procedure.
