Review on 🚘 TYC 800023P2 Mazda Cabin Air Filter Replacement by David Hodgson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The guy who designed this filtration system should be arrested.

This cabin filter system was designed by a sadist. Unless you weigh 100 pounds, are 5 feet 2 inches tall and look like a skinny kid, this filter will take years to install. from your life. Step 1 - Destroy any ligaments in your shoulder that will require years of chiropractic work for the rest of your life by attempting to remove 4 screws. The top right screw is the most dangerous. As soon as I figured it out I threw it in the trash because it's not going back. Step 2 - Disconnect the heater module to avoid damaging it when installing the cabin air filter. Because every other automaker requires you to unplug the heater, right? Step 3 - Try to squeeze your body into the passenger footwell so you can install the filter. Of course, since this is a two-part setup, you'll need to install the first part, hold it, and then slide the second part underneath. It will surely leave you mentally broken as you relive all your nightmares and phobias of being stuck in a confined space with no way out while you sweat and cry yourself to death. All of the passenger footwell panels snap back into place. Step 5. Make an appointment with a chiropractor and possibly an orthopedist.
