Cabin Air

My dad has an '02 Solara, and I was trying to get to the cabin air filter (which I assume is behind the glove box) and I was having a hard time getting the glove box off... I did it no problem on my Gen 5 Camry, but yeah. It doesn't seem to come off the same way that it did in mine. Can anyone help me out?

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.

Ok, I was messing around with my dad's Solara, and from the looks of it, to get the glove box out, you need to remove the panels around it... so I removed the screws for the panels, but they were still firmly in place. After loosening up some of the panels, I tried to pull out the air box and no go... how the hell are you supposed to do this? lol Anyone know?

You can find the cabin air filter at www.brandsport.com . The OEM part number is 87139-32010. Haha. But yeah, no luck yet... I'm going to try a different source... I'll post here if I find anything.

Yeah, I found this out a few days ago...I started taking apart panels in my dad's Solara with no luck, so my dad took it in to this guy, and he basically said straight out that there's no cabin air filter for that model. Oh well... haha.
