Compartment Air Filters
It may be me, but I can't seem to find an easy method of changing out the passenger compartment air filters. The charcoal filters are a breeze, silpping in and out under the glove compartment, but the other filters have me stumped - any suggestions? Thanks

Sorry, I logged a couple of queries today, and forgot to put the car details on this one (not at my best Sunday morning!).
The car is a 98 E430 Sudan.
I can see the filters through the air vent intake, but can't get access without damaging the filters, and I can see them up through the fan from the passenger side seat well. I've tried to take out glove compartment (they seem to sit in front of it) but stopped as it look as though the whole dash may have to come out - surely not I hope!!!
Thanks - Tom

To Replace the Filters..You MUST remove the Glove box to replace the filters...NOT The Dash...Remove all The Screws Inside the glove box and Push Down the top...Then Pull the assy out ..Its a Tight fit so You WILL Have To Pull Hard!
