Default Changing the cabin air filter

Here I go again....... Another S2000 project. I want to change my cabin air filter.. This time I have done some research as to how it is done. But as always i like to
check with all you Allegheny S2000 experts to make sure I am going to do it right. I did find on the S2KI mother website a few articles that were posted about changing the
cabin air filter.

One was posted by Airgate posted Aug. 2003... lots of info and good pictures.

Another was posted by Destiny posted Sept. 2003..... Lots of tips and pictures.

I ordered the cabin air filter which will be here this week...... If any of the Allegheny members have any other information I should know please let me know on this post.
It would certainly be appreciated by me.

Thanks everyone...... LITTLE RED


ALSO... here are a couple of web sites that shows more information.

Little Red,

Who did you order your new filters (cabin and intake) through?

Hello DISH,

I got the engine air intake filter from Honda north. they got it for me in 2 days. i installed it myself in my garage.
the cost from Honda north for the filter was $ 37.


I ordered the cabin air filter from Amazon since I had an account there. I ordered a Beck-Arnley cabin air filter .This
company makes Genuine Foreign Name Plate auto parts. The list price was $ 34 ....I paid $ 15 + shipping .

Hello RedOne2007,

If you have a chance look at the video I just posted on my original post on changing the cabin air filter.

You may have the top down...... but the air coming through the vents is not very clean if your air
filter looks like the one in the video..... Just a thought ?

This is a quick video that will give you a basic idea as were to start when you want to change your cabin
air filter.. I did not post this video on my original post until today. The 80 people who read my original post
before today did not see this video ...... Sorry about that.

Also, I added step by step instruction pictures on how to install the cabin air filter.
