Air conditioner box thing?

Does anybody know how to remove the box thing (cant for the life of me remember the name)? Above the little battery on the passenger side under the hood. Im trying to access the grommet in the firewall beneath the battery there, any help is much appreciated. -John

You mean where the filter is? All it takes is one plastic nut that's next to the washer fluid and then just pull it up and out.

As I recall it is pretty straight forward, here is a pic of the gromet with a white 14-2 power cable passing through it.

To tell you the truth, it must have been pretty easy, cause I don't remember having any problem with it. I think if you just look at it, you will see how it is attached. I will tell you one thing that I do remember, not all the knock outs (passes) in the grommet come out easy so be-careful not to damage any of the other wires.

I already said how to remove it in the 2nd post. It's one of the easiest things you can possibly do. Changing out your wipers is more difficult...lol.
