Default 966 Cabin Filter Replacement - Help

As stated earlier, new here, would like to check all filters. I know how to inspect the air filter but where is and how do I remove the cabin filter. I Did a pretty thorough search and didnt see anything. Thx for all replys.

Access is next to the battery. Open hood, remove battery cover and then the plastic cover on the left (passenger) side with a torx bit (T-25).

You'll then see the cabin filter under there and close to the firewall. Shine a light. There is a plastic tab that clips off to allow better access to remove the filter.
