Cheap cabin and engine filters?
I have a 2007 fit sport and would like to know where do you guys buy your cabin and engine filters? I need to get them replaced. Car has 75k miles and i got it replaced at 30k several years ago at dealership. I'd like to do my own this time. Does anyone have instructions to replace the cabin filter? I know where the engine filter is but not sure how to replace the cabin filter.

There's a video.
For the filter, I use any brand available at the parts store.
Edit, I have nothing to do with the brand and/or website in the video, just found it to help this guy out.

I currently own 4 cars that have cabin air filters. I cut my own from a large sheet of generic HVAC filter media I got at Home Depot for about $10. Each filter change costs me about 50 cents. It's not HEPA-quality filtration, but I haven't noticed any difference (I don't have allergies, so YMMV.)

My lord... what was easy lol.. I always thought that it was a pain to detach the glove compartment.. especialyl when something fell behind it!
I'll replace all my filters from now on.
I have allergies so I may want to stick with the Hepa ones, hopefully I can find cheap ones.
thanks all!

use a charcoal aftermarket cabin air filter ($7) and OEM Engine air filter ($18). Easily available from Ebay sellers (lots of Honda dealers selling OEM parts at a discount).

I looked for a cabin filter at local auto parts stores last night and was surprised no one had it in stock. Price range to order one was $30 to $40
Twice the price of a Civic cabin air filter.
Do any other ones interchange? I guess I'll order one from Amazon for $15

hvac filters work great, been using them in other cars for years. Annoying when you gotta do cutting etc. but if you get a big sized filter you can keep cutting away at it and get multiple filters outta it for next time you change it.

I'm at almost 90K and I think the last time it was changed was right before I bought the car at 52K. Went to advance auto parts, they had nothing in stock. This TYC filter seems like a good buy.
