Great info as always.
I have done the engine one, but have never attacked the cabin one.
I let the dealer do the last two ones on it.
And man, they were filthy, especially since I park under a tree at home and at work.

I will buy a few filters to have on hand, and change out my next one in the cabin.

this is so easy to do yourself! I used to work at a toyota dealership in the service dept and it amazed me that people would pay us to switch this out! Crazy

@eddiejz it is supper easy... and if you pick up some aquarium filter media, you can cut your own cabin filter and save lots over the OEM filters.
