thank you. seems easy enough

 

Owner's manual

 

Can not get easier than this...that **** though can test your patience.

 

Every 7,500 miles? oh crap

 

thanks thats what i needed

 

7500? Thought it was 15.. But then again it really depends on the conditions of driving. Dirt roads will dirty that filter realll quick

 

I'm glad this was brought up, I just checked mine and it was not pretty lol luckily they're cheap to replace

 

I was looking at several brands online and found an installation video from FRAM with our car, may be helpful for those DIY'ers

Nice....the video was perfect!

 

Any thoughts on the blitz cabin air filter?

 

If you don't want to replace it that often you can vacuum it out regularly. This will get out a lot of the dirt and the larger things that get trapped in there.

 

Also, not sure what year your car is but on my 2007 there is no need to lower the glove-box. There's an access panel in the back of the glove-box that can be popped-off giving you easy access to the air-filter cover. See owner's manual here: http://drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/do.../sec_04-03.pdf on pdf page 39.

 

I bought the cheap TYC one: http://www.amazon.com/TYC-800053C-Le...3474703&sr=8-1. Didn't really see the point in buying an expensive one.
