Clean a Honda Civic Cabin Air Filter

If you care about the quality of air you are breathing outside, you may think about the air you are breathing while driving your Honda Civic. Most newer cars now come equipped with cabin air filters that filter pollutants & allergens from entering the cab of the vehicle. Finding the cabin air filters can be more challenging then replacing them. On the Honda Civic, it is not bad so forgo the labor charges & do it yourself.



Open the passenger side front door & remove the small triangular panel on the side of the dash. Unscrew the Phillips head screws behind the panel.

Press in on the hinge tabs on both sides of the glove box. Grasp the part of the tabs that moved inward & pull them farther inward to remove them.

Locate the hinge tabs on the bottom of the glove box on both the left & right sides. Remove the tabs by hand.



Locate the black panel labelled "Air Flow." This is the finish of the cabin air filter. Push back the tabs on the sides of the panel. Grasp the panel & pull it out to remove the cabin air filter.
