7500 miles is a good mark. As you can see from that last picture, 10,000 is too many.

That is a nice little tip for a diy. Does this work as well as the stock filter?

Just a little venting here (pun intended)....
Thie cabin air filter thing has become the dream of the Lexus dealers around here in Chicago. The last one I was at had FIVE of them around the service writer's office (well the boxes marked Toyota Cabin Air Filter) - along with a "ask me about a new cabin airf filter" poster.

Guess what? Even though mine was changed 5,000 miles ago (at a different dealer ...shhh), It was recommended that I replace it - because the tech said mine was dirty.

I think they charge $65 to change this baby. Cha ching.

and people wonder why we don't trust car dealers....
