#3 of 5 cabin filter by steve333 Oct 28, 2007 (8:10 pm)
Thanks for the info. Looks like the cabin filter will be a pain but I think i will try to do it if Chevy overcharges for the installation which Im sure they will. Replies to this message: quietpro (Oct 29, 2007 2:54 pm) steve333 (Oct 29, 2007 8:48 pm)

I think the key with it was stopping the windshield wipers in the up position. I think all you need is a standard screwdriver and again, a little patience to learn the "trick" to getting the pieces to snap into place. Unfortunately, you'll only replace them once or twice once you learn how to do it. Replies to this message: steve333 (Oct 29, 2007 8:48 pm)
