Can't find Pollen Filter

Hi there!

I'm from Argentina and I have a 2004 Honda Fit. Does anyone know where the Pollen filter could possibly be? My brother in law has a 2008 Honda Fit and the pollen filter is behind the glove box compartment. I removed the plastics on my own Fit but the filter is simply not there.

Any help is appreciated!!

By "Pollen filter", do you mean what others have called the cabin air filter?

Different markets were equipped differently.

That said, it was reported that some owners in hotter climates removed the cabin filter to increase airflow. So, if there is a space, you can install one.

Don't know if a 2004 filter requires a plastic frame, though.

I did not know that! I learned something new today.

I was going through my owner manual of my 07 and it was referred to as a "Dust pollen filter".

Looks like someone posted up the procedure on youtubes too.
