Replacing Interior dust and pollen filter

How do you replace this interior filter? No mention of it in the owner's manual.

Thanks!

Open the glove box, remove the cover, slide it out, bang the dust off of it and put it back. If it's gross looking replace it. I haven't actually done it yet, but I hear it is really easy.

You also need to remove the screw that is holding the arm of the glove box.
I think there are directions in the owners manual.

I just replace mine every year. It's under 20 bucks and my allergies suck in the spring. 20 bucks is worth it for me. lol.

I haven't changed mine since I bought the car in Aug 02.
I did buy one the other day though. Just gotta find the time to do it.

Been that busy huh...
It'll be faster than changing your wiper blades.
Your nose will than you for it. I bet you'll find a bunch of leaves and crap on your filter.
It'll feel better in the winter since you'll be using the HVAC more.
