So for those wanting to do this, the trickiest part is STEP 5. There are 3 bolts, two 8mm bolts and one 10mm bolts concealed by the center console panel. In the video, the mechanic has a small and short socket wrench that he was able to fit into the gap. I didn't have that. So I had to shove my entire left arm inside of the center plastic to manually turn the socket wrench with my fingers because the rotational clearance for the wrench was too narrow to actually get torque. You know you're doing it right if your left arm goes numb.

Thank you! Absolutely best, most professionally produced, and most accurate how-to video for this replacement! My ‘99 CRV EX AT is at 213K miles. I recommend removing the blower motor/fan assembly and cleaning it too during this filter replacement. I’m in the process of repairing a water leak that comes from the poorly designed air intake, located underneath the windshield cowl. I’ve fashioned a heavy duty plastic shoebox cover over the air intake vent, to prevent water pouring in from the worn out cowl “weatherstripping “. I had to mount small brackets on the firewall to secure this plastic cover. Replacing all cowl clips to resecure cowl, and adding a FrostKing weatherstrip to keep original cowl.

Hi Aaron, just used your video to replace the cabin air filter in a 2000 Honda CRV. It was pretty much spot on, except when you were working on the bolts on the left side of the glovebox. It was not clear that the 10mm and 8mm bolts needed to be removed, and then the second 8mm bolt should be loosened several turns to allow the glovebox bar to be pushed down. The rest and the re-assembly went pretty well. One minor request would be that the foam padding on the air filter frame and disintegrated; a replacement would be helpful since everything was apart. Cheers,

Thanks for the video! I have a 1999 CRV and needed to replace the air filter and cabin air filter. The dealership wanted $32 and $75 respectively. You saved me $75! Thanks again.

Thank you so much for your video. It gave me the confidence to change my wife's 2000 Honda CRV cabin air filter. We inherited the car and the cabin air filter had never been changed! 19 years! yes, YUCK! At first you might think of wiping clean the sides of the cabin air filter container, but that is actually old cushioning to help with lessening vibration noise.

Just did this myself thanks to your video. My old cabin filter was completely black and extremely old, I honestly don’t think it had been changed since the car was made. Prior to changing, my A/C was super weak and now it’s blowing like a mothafucka! Cold as hell, so glad I watched this and committed.

I thought this was too much work when I did it the first time. So I cut a three inch section out of the metal brace that goes horizontally in front of the air filter.Then I attached a hinge to the right side with bolts, then I drilled two quarter inch holes on the other side, and secured it with a short piece of metal and two bolts.. So next time, I just have to remove one bolt, and loosen the other one, and swing the bracket out of the way to access the filter. It works great! Of course, you still have to remove the glovebox.

Your video is INCREDIBLE & I’m in the process of doing mine as I type. Question for you ( I know this was 4 years ago, however towards the passenger side is that plastic thing ( great description, right?) above that it appears like that’s another filter or????? Is that replaceable or cleanable ? Thanks again for the video!!!

Could you add a little more detail on step 5? Like does it matter which 2 of the 3 are removed? Also a better shot of how you do it back in there would be helpful. But thanks for the video, it's generally easy to follow and has a good camera angle.

Thanks for the input! The idea behind taking two of the three screws out is that, after loosening the third screw, it allows the metal bar to be lowered while staying attached to that hard to get to attachment point. It doesn't matter which two screws to remove, it's awkward no matter what. And the reason you do this becomes clear when trying to put it all back together I think. It's hard enough getting your hands in there, but trying to put the screws back after taking them out is no fun at all. So keeping one screw in will help you align the other screws/holes. Hope this helps!

That's a good video right there. It reminds me of the 1998 Accord I used to have, required to take the lower glove box frame and all similarly. I got an 01 CR-V and have to do mine soon and I hope that's all it is because the air is coming out super weak even with the fan on high.
