Bandit Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I've read that our car have an in cabin dual air filtration system. Does anyone have a DIY to remove and clean these filters. Thanks,
AWJ Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I've seen it somewhere before but I do not remember where. I'll try to locate it and link it up. Check our standard fall backs though - Planetsoarer, etc. Really buisy this week.
Bandit Posted March 11, 2004 Author Posted March 11, 2004 I found the DIY for the In Cabin Air Filters. http://web.ace.net.au/soarer/air_conditioner_filter.html I then went to remove them from my 93 SC400 and everything was going well until I removed the door for the Air Filter. No Air Filter! I do not know if they have been removed or were never present, but there is a place to install them. My next question is, where can I find the information to order a replacement filter? Was this a Japan only option, because of smog and everyone smokes? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'll check the Lexus dealer and see if they can order this.
Bandit Posted March 11, 2004 Author Posted March 11, 2004 Completed a little research and found the following: The Incabin Air Filter is available from a Lexus Dealer for $63.00 PN: 88880 24020 All SC's have the compartment for this filter, but not many had it installed. This may have been a dealer option and most saved the money and did not install. When I opened my compartment up, there was alot of fine dust and lint on the cover. It seems that this would be a good option to install. The filter looks much like a K&N and could be cleaned with soap and water and reused. It would also be a good way to add a little air freshener to the filter before installing. I hope this helps anyone thats interested.
Bandit Posted March 12, 2004 Author Posted March 12, 2004 Some Better Research: I contacted Carson Toyota in California and ordered it for $40.00 plus $4.00 shipping.
