I decided that I don't care what Nissan recommends and after 31K miles I am replacing my in-cabin air filter that I purchased 15K miles ago



What's that? You think I should have replaced it sooner?

EWWWW! I need to find out if I have one installed. Am I right in thinking they left the area for one but did not put one in the 09s?

Yes. I think Mr.kenchan did a DIY for cabin filter installation.


Ok, it wasn't Kenchan... This was the first link google gave me DIY: Adding In-Cabin air filter to the 370Z

Well, going through the thread, it looks as though Mr.kenchan used this DIY himself. So... I would say its kenchan approved

I used the service manual, but I read through pretty much every thread on the forum in my searching though I still never figured out how to get the glove compartment door to pop off the hinges...

I rarely use the A/C or heat - windows down whenever possible

But I definitely plan to do it more often - it's pretty darn easy

Nope! That's pure JAR, aka the infamous JAR musk and sometimes referred to as Eau de JAR

It's six screws - pretty simple

Luckily, the stuff literally oozes from my skin (that doesn't make it any less expensive tho!). I'll have your order next time you swing by the house
