Replacing cabin air filter on 2001 Honda Odyssey 2

[dahgutone]

The 2001 Honda Odyssey's Cabin Filter design and placement was POORLY executed.

I changed mine today @ 25k miles. (Yes it has low miles)

Mine had the SAME set-up as your Odyssey and I HAD to cut off that crappy ass plastic bar.

Took more than an hour or so to get the job done.

I never changed the air filter and it was CLEANER than the cabin filter yet it is much more difficult to get to.

For a filter that needs to be changed every 15-25k miles, this design (back then) is poorly executed.

In my manual says check with your Honda dealer to replace filter cabin. What year is your car ?

wow... you didn't have to cut anything! all you had to do is release the tabs on the inside of your glove box and it will release so you can access the cabin filter!

@irsan5777 well than i dont know what to tell ya you might need to cut it but on mine i did what that guy did in the video and it worked just fine... did you check your owners manual?

you just installed it upside down...the tab should be on the bottom.

Thanks for the video.
