Yaris Cabin Air Filter?? - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

I found rockauto has a variety of cabin air filters for the Yaris if you want to order it online. You can usually find a discount code off retailmenot.

Checked the filter in my 07' today and it was very dirty. My guess is it's the original and 3 years old now. There are many brands available on line, which do you folks rate as good or bad?

make one! You can make EIGHT with these supplies:

20"x 30" x 1" central air style filter for a home, tin snips, duct tape, marking implement, measuring implement.

That's what I did. I have forgotten the make of the filter but it has a separate charcoal filter and another separate washable green colored filter with an individual top and bottom plastic criss(sp?)-crossed "holder". Pretty sure it's by 3M.

I did the DIY version as well. I bought one home filter and got what? 8 out of that one as I remember. I've only used three or four so far. Not bad for $20. They work like a charm too. I purchased the best home HEPA filter 3M had at the store.

Anyone actually have some pics of how you made your own?? Of how and where you installed it on the car ??

Napa's import line (Altrom) for teh win! $8.50

Full-flow & nice, tight fit. No duct tape frame.
I'd be afraid the Toyota tech would laugh at me if I did this mod.
