Great explanation video. Well done. One Caution though is when removing the elastic dampening cord (30-second point), don’t just let the cord spring back as shown in the video. My bad luck had the connector piece drawn back and got caught on something behind the plastic frame. It took about 45-minutes of frustration retrieving it. Best to unhook the dampener from the glove box and gently let it retract to its resting point while holding it. Otherwise about a 10-minute process to complete.
I tried to be mindful of this, and I can totally see how this could happen. There wasn't enough room for me to safely let it go and I just lucked out that it didn't catch something.
Thanks for the video. You showed releasing the clip on the right side, but you must also release the clip on the left side in the same way, or you are likely to break the clip on the left side (as I did). If you do break one of the clips (which seems likely to occur at this or a later change), you can use a couple of good rubber bands wrapped from left-to-right across the front to hold the cover in place.
Don't just pull on the push pin. You'll break it. When removing the cover, push the center of the push pin in and the entire thing will come out easily. When putting the cover back on, push the center of the pin out (opposite direction from before) and you can easily secure it in the hole.
@@daleair2012 Once you push the center of the pin in, you can use a screwdriver or something to pry the head out and the entire thing will easily pop right out.
@@daleair2012 pushing in the center pin while holding the fabric and then pulling out. The fabric is loose. Once and after that, you can pull the pin out and install the same way after you're finished.
@@daleair2012 When you push the center in, it collapses the expanded plastic feet of the grommet. This makes the grommets feet/wings/whatever they are called to have a smaller diameter, allowing you to then remove the grommet by the pulling on it, not on the felt fabric.
I'm hopefully buying a 2017 Pacific Touring-L tomorrow and stuff like this will definitelyyyyy help. Thank you for your videos bro. Definitely got a new subscriber here :)
My AC smells bad. I want to buy some cleaner foam to clean the evaporator. I wonder if I can remove the cabin air filter and shoot the cleaner foam into that whole? Most cars have the evaporator right behind the cabin filter.
Online is probably the cheapest route but I usually just buy them at a local auto parts store so I don't have to wait for shipping. Most auto parts stores (O'reileys, Autozone, Advanced Auto Parts, Napa, etc. ) should have these filters in stock.
This guy is so easy to understand he's straight to the point on how to fix the problem

Well, look who should've read this before he let his dampening cord snap back... (this guy, this guy should've read this)
I also didn't read this before doing it. It also took me about 45 minute to retrieve the dampening cord.
This was made perfectly for someone doing this the first time. Very well made video.
Thanks! Happy it helped
Thank you. This is the best video of the ones on TH-cam!
Thanks!
Made the process simple and easy. A great video. Thank you very much for posting this.

Thanks. I watch that and jumped like seeing someone getting hit by a car! Went directly to comments to find the correct way to detach it.
Not sure what you mean by this? How can you push the center in while at the same time trying to pull it out?

Do you need to bend the old filter a little bit to take it out and the new one to put it in? That is what I needed to do.
I think I did have to bend it a little bit to get it to come all the way out
I had to bend mine more than I would have liked - seemed to be misaligned by an inch or so
Very helpful! Thanks for a great video!

When I pulled my filter out, it was sideways with the writing to the right, does it need to be facing out like you did?
not necessarily, that would probably only apply for sure if you have an OEM factory filter - the writing on the filers can vary depending on brand.
By chance have a video on how to replace the blower motor?
I do not, sorry
Thanks
You're welcome!
Thanks.

Mine didn’t seem to have a cord to attach
How often should this be changed?
The car manufacturers usually recommend 10k - 15k miles or about once a year. I usually just check them out visually and go off how dirty they are.
Voyager are the same?
yes I believe they are the same
Where is the best place to get an air filter?
Online is probably the cheapest route but I usually just buy them at a local auto parts store so I don't have to wait for shipping. Most auto parts stores (O'reileys, Autozone, Advanced Auto Parts, Napa, etc. ) should have these filters in stock.
I paid how much to have this done? Oh brother.
Dealership wanted 99$ to do this 2min task.
unfortunately that's not surprising
My dealership in San Leandro, California wants $145.
You are wrong mine is under the glove box
Excellent video. Thank you
Thanks!
Super helpful
