Introduction
All you’ll need is a new AQ1182 Cabin Air Filter and a few minutes to remove the proper parts, remove the old filter, and replace it with the brand new one. Be careful when removing the old filter that you don’t accidentally inhale any of the particles. Linked below is a video of replacing an air filter on a similar (but not exact) Honda Civic model, if you need the extra visual aid.
