Default air conditioning filters (they are two, right?)

I bought two air conditioning filters for my 2007 Lexus 460 and have already managed to change the one located in the glove box but the other one is very hard to be found. could any one help me on that?

many thanks in advance

You only have 2 if you have the optional rear climate control. If you do then it'll be in the trunk. If you're unsure look at your rear arm rest. If it has climate buttons then you do. If not then...

Two ENGINE air filters, but only one HVAC filter without rear climate control.

For those of you WITH rear air conditioning, the rear filter is significantly larger than the front cabin filter in the glove box. I made that mistake

If I may suggest pouring vinegar in the under-front windshield grills in a nasty/moldy air situation. I experienced situations that moldy smell would not go away even if you replace AC filter. Introducing vinegar was a perfect solution. Just pour a cup into each of the grills and turn on AC with windows closed at first and then open them in 5 mins and let it air out for 30 mins.
There could be remaining vinegar smell but bearable and it will go away shortly. I am not saying AC filters should not be changed, but if the smell persists, try my solution.
