Difficulty: Beginner · About 15 min · Honda Cr-v

Replace the dual cabin air filters behind the glove box on a 2002-2006 Honda CR-V.

Steps

1. Open the glove box

   Pry the glove box's two retaining tabs loose (push from outside while prying from inside), lower the box down, then release the access door's tab and remove the door.

2. Remove the old filters

   Pull out the first filter, slide the second one toward the driver's side and out, then pull both filters free of their plastic cartridges.

3. Fit the new filters

   Slot the new filters into the cartridges with their airflow arrows pointing down, clear any debris from the compartment, then fit the inner filter first, sliding it toward the passenger side, followed by the other.

4. Reinstall the glove box

   Refit the access door starting at the passenger side, then hold the glove box up while clipping its tabs back in.

Check your vehicle’s repair manual for exact specifications and fit.
