Review on Dorman Cabin Air Filter Retrofit Kit 259-201 for Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC Models by Mike Davan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Improvement in cabin air quality, somewhat painful installation (plastic part)

Filter and cap seem to work great. 5 stars for the product. The installation is small, mainly due to limited access (2011 Silverado 2500HD). Even with a very sharp (new) razor, it took a lot of clumsy elbowing to cut through the plastic and make a hole for the filter. What I found out about halfway through is that if you tilt the blade inwards slightly (towards the center of the piece you are removing) the blade will penetrate more easily and you can slowly cut through the plastic.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
