i got my cabin filters in today. there are two, two part filters and since none where there originally, I cant figure out how they go in. when I put one in, it just floats around loosely. any help would be great, thanks!

 

there's a pocket for the first one to slide to the side...then you just you slide the other one up

found the tutorial... http://web.ace.net.au/soarer/air_con...er_filter.html

 

where did you buy the filters and how much? i cant find any.

 

Just did a search on ebay for "sc300 cabin" and got a couple of results.

 

what year did the Sc's start getting cabin filters?

i dont thnk my 92 has one.. or does it?

 

I have a 93 but mine has the filters missing. Is this bad for the car?

 

i think they all have cabin filters, but none of the american SCs came with the filter in the car. do a search for cabin filter and there's a topic with the part number and also has the link for installation.

 

it's like the pull-down cupholder, they made a place for it but didn't put one in...if i remember correctly they start putting them in with the 96...and just get them at the dealer, around 30 bucks which is not that bad

and if you didn't have the filters, stick a vaccum hose up there

 

mines a 96 and it was empty, so I'll assume it didnt come with a filter. and as for those tricky directions I was looking for...found em. right in the box I've had all weekend. yep, nice, clearly illustated, english directions. guess I should have looked at the "paperwork" in the box.

 

hah i took out the cabin filter in my Camry.. i found rat poop in it..

wonder what ill find in a 15 year old lexus that was parked outside most of its life <puke> ..

 

When ever I put the A/c on it smells like dog ****, any tips? gross

 

I have a 97...mine doesn't have one, but then I never run AC...so meh? haha =)

 

try turning the heat on full blast for about 10 minutes to kill the bacteria. After that, air out the car and then see if it gets any better.

 

Even better buy Wurth Auto Air Conditioner Cleaner Treatment on ebay. It works great.
