Good question. I would pop out my vents and go to a carwash and use those high-suction vaccums, unless you had access to one.
where should I begin on cleaning out the vents? When I turn the AC or heat on ... it 1st start out with some wet towel smell or whatever. I am sure there are things like nuts, leaves ..etc. that are stucked somewhere along the venting system. Where should I being? Thanks

replaced mine a few months ago. i got no idea if the previous owners had replaced this ever at all. it's so crusted that the filter got stuck in there. when it came out, the whole thing's filled with garbage in almost all the crevices. so yeah, if u smell leaves and such, change that and u should feel much better.
the question now is.. which type to buy? there are a few out there...
trymonlam, where did u pick up urs? i went to autozone, pepboyz. they dotn have it at all. should i go with Bosch or OEM?

i used the one with charcoal. though i heard that the charcoal function goes away within a short time, i feel good having them in my air system.
Thanks, it should be here in a few days. I am going to take a look at my filter tonight. 70k miles..who knows I might find a fish or a piece of turkey in there

be fully aware that this is probably going to be nasty. if u don't want to go through the trouble of vacuuming your carpet, put something there to catch the junk.
where is the actual air vent that flows air into the cabin?
