Can anyone tell me if this procedure is the same for the '08 models?
ditto on the air filter change for a '08 CS?
thanks!

Just finished this DIY.

Clearly no one had EVER changed the cabin filter in my '05 CS as the old filter was almost completely black and had some leaves and other debris mixed in. No wonder things were starting to smell funky.

A true 10 minute DIY. If you have not done it ... do it now.

OK, I don't mind saying I'm both annoyed and delighted to see that there are power supply points up there. NEVER KNEW! I ran a wire to get a triple-plug set-up for mine years ago. Oh well.

As I stated in my version of the "instructions", I didn't know they were there until I did the filter swap myself. Even took a pic of them to prove they were there.

So you're not the first.
