Default Changing 98 engine air filter

Not sure if thats what its called, but i got the filter for under the hood. I found this DIY

Id like to know if the 98's filters are replaced the same way.

I just did the ac filter under the dash.

I got the engin air filter for free, from the previous owner still in the toyota box, now i just need to figure out how to replace it.

ty.

Yes this is exactly how you do it. Takes about 1 or 2 mins.

yes very simple, funny just did mine..

on a side note I replaced mine with a Denso OEM toyota filter, and took out a Wix filter, and they are identical to the T everything is 100% the same about them, the color and every part o the design and the materials all the same, guess they are manufactured by the same distributor.
