Hyundai Dealer wanted to charge $50 in labor and approx $50 for the parts. Grab the part from Amazon:
FRAM CF10735
It was approximately $20 delivered and to replace it is dead simple...
Take 4minutes.
1. Open Glove Box
2. Unscrew and take inward simple knobs on left/right side.
3. Globe Box drops
4. Press the clip on the left hand side
5. Then swap in/out the new filter.
Boom, you're done. The one I got on amazon felt much more robust than the Hyundai standard issue. Now, I'm certain many of you have done this on other cars before, this is just a gentle reminder that you can manage this simple maintenance yourself. You can also consult your car manual for some better pictures/descriptions.
The whole reason why I did this replacement is to test whether or not the moldy smell was affected by the cabin air filter. It's not very humid here right now so I can't tell yet. Stay tuned.
