TAPTES Air Filter for Tesla Model 3 & Model Y (2017-2021) - Activated Carbon Replacement Cabin Air Intake Filter (Set of 2) Review

was damaged The filters themselves are awesome! They work great and are perfect for Tesla. The cutting tool and torx wrench were also appreciated. I'd recommend getting a short Torx screwdriver as well, as the supplied screwdriver can be tricky to use in tight spaces.

Overall happy with purchase. Fits model 3 well. Only problem was the tabs on mine for removing the bottom filter were on the wrong side. Still usable and I have confirmed that I can remove the bottom filter without the pull tab. I could have received one from a wrongly made batch. I also checked that the flow direction is correct.

Fits and replaces OEM filters. But it really hurts to get and replace it. Took me almost two hours from start to finish. Not difficult, just awkward. Luckily a torx screwdriver was included... that helped a lot! And the bad smell from the car is gone, hooray! I can't believe Tesla made them so difficult to change. Did a similar setup on my Honda and it was a lot easier.

These filters had a noticeable cardboard smell which I didn't like. After a while I noticed that it was irritating my throat. After two weeks I was fed up and decided to buy replacement filters direct from Tesla. Now the smell is gone and the cabin smells clean. The only thing I liked about this pack was the plastic tool and torx screwdriver, otherwise I wouldn't recommend it.

After 2 months at home due to Covid restrictions I noticed these air filters at Revain. Knowing that removing and replacing filters takes a bit of work, I figured now would be a good time to start the process. I watched the installation video, everything was quite simple. I completed the process in about 20 minutes as it was my first attempt. I think next time it will only take me half the time. They fit like OEM.

It is difficult to install whatever filter you buy, but all the necessary tools are included in the kit. The screw on the filter plate is the worst part, but their tool makes it as easy as it gets. Filter replaced after two years and 75,000 miles. They were disgusting. Now I do this at least twice a year. Also, the air conditioner smelled like dirty socks before, and now I can breathe a sigh of relief. This is likely due to the 75,000 miles between filter changes.

Looks the same as OEM Tesla filters. The dimensions were identical. What I wasn't aware of when ordering was that the kit included a plastic tool for removing the bezels and fasteners, and a T20 screwdriver, which you'll need to remove the small bezel that covers the Model 3's filters when you're on warm If you notice an unpleasant odor when you turn on the air conditioner on humid days, spray Kool It Evaporator Cleaner. I bought it at my local auto parts store for $12. The bad smell is gone.

What Makes Them The Best Filters? They come with the tools needed for the job. I had no idea how to do this but I googled and watched a video on youtube and it taught me everything. It wasn't difficult until I had to remove the screw. Just be aware your back will hurt afterwards lol. I stood on my head and touched the ceiling with my feet. It's not usually bad, but in this case it was awful. The screw is tiny and barely visible. It will be at the top of the door. You need the tools provided to…

Liked:- Fits well, looks like OEM. Once I managed to get the filter, I was able to install it without much hassle. I liked that it included all the tools needed for installation. What I didn't like: - Compared to the OEM that I removed, it was a little lighter and a little inferior to the OEM (understandable since it's cheaper). The rim was not as thick as the original. Next time I will probably choose OEM direct from Tesla as the installation requires quite a bit of work and I don't want to go
