the whole glove box has to come out? there has to be a simplier way. my old lexus you could pinch the sides of the glove box door and axcess the filter.

It has to come out. There is no other. It's actually easier then it looks. Only takes about 5 minutes to remove it.

Excellent picture, I was wondering where this filter was. Thanks, Now I know.

Glad I could help!

Holy sh...can you post a video abou this on youtube?

I don't plan to change this for a long time, but I suggest you look through the DIY section. There are several guides on how to do this.

does the 370Z have a dedicated part number for the AC filter or do we use one from a different car?

I believe the 2012 and 2013 now have filters from the factory, which means they have a dedicated part number, but I don't know what that is.

I show this part no. (or what I think may be the part no.) on a 2011 370Z in-cabin air filter: Nissan 272771EA0A or perhaps A3061B1900000. My Nissan dealer did not show a part no. for the filter (?) for some reason. I had to use an alternate filter.

Thanks for the info! I still haven't changed this. My Z is a garage queen and only has 10,000 miles on her. Maybe in the spring I'll replace it, or at least take it out and see if it needs to be replaced.
