Hello, thanks for the advice...I had to adapt because your photos are not exactly like on my car, but it did the trick thanks
Thanks, that stops you from having to freak out like crazy and tear off all the bits of plastic.
Clear and well-made tutorial (explanatory photos) Small downside for the direction of assembly of the new filter, the arrows indicate the direction of the air, from the outside to the inside of the passenger compartment.
Good tutorial, well explained with photos. Several tutorials like this one position the filter arrows towards the front. However, it seems to me that the air comes from the front so the direction of the flow (air flow) is rather towards the rear, quite logical since the air goes into the passenger compartment;
Thanks for the tutorial!
Thanks for the helping hand.
