2019 C63s - Engine side Cabin Air Filter - No Box?
I've got the musty smell when I turn on my AC so about to replace all the filters, pump some Kool-It into the heater core, the whole deal. I pop the hood, remove the plastic cover on the passenger side, pull up on the plastic section holding the filter (pictured below)...
...and I was surprised to find no 'bottom' to the box. Just a lot of empty space, and maybe what looks like a vent or drain at the bottom? I did some searching and the videos I could find seemed to be on C300s, where there's no box but there is a battery in that space. So, is this big empty void just unused space and the filter is exposed on the bottom side, or is there supposed to be some sort of enclosure here?

Nope nothing under it. Just a big open space with the bottom of that filter exposed
