I've seen lots of how-to websites regarding the replacement of the cabin air filters on Accords, but none specifically for a 2002 Accord EX. I bought the filters and went to do it myself but I haven't found any helpful instructions. I know you have to go through the glove compartment, so here is a picture of it as a way to get started. Any help is much appreciated!

 

I have an '02 myself and will change my filters pretty soon for the first time. I believe there are clips on both sides of the glove compartment and u unclip them and gently pull the glove box down. Inside you'll see the cover for the filters and there should be clips on both sides of that as well. U unclip and pull them out. I'm not 100% sure though as I haven't done it myself. Also, where did u buy your filters? Any brand in specific? how much did they cost? Thanks.

I live in Jax, so I went to Advance Auto Parts. I got the Purolator BreatheEasy C15390. It was $18.79 for two. I read about the clips online, but when I went to look for them I couldn't find them. Maybe I'm having a Polish moment.

 

Click the link Finch posted. Looks more complicated than i thought for the '02 =/

 

Yes, the 03-07 are the easy ones with the flip down glove box door.

 

Yeah I looked at the link. It seems very complicated--then again, I'm not very good with these things. I just wanted to save some money by doing it myself. My regular mechanic wanted $40 for the filters and $42.50 for labor. So I called him today and told him I bought the filters for $19. They don't let you bring in your own parts, but he told me to bring in the receipt and he'll price match me or something. He's a pretty nice guy. They also wanted $100 for headlight lens restoration; I got a $20 kit from the auto parts store and did it myself in 10 minutes. Yayyyyy being unemployed.

 

It ain't even about bein unemployed anymore, any middle class working citizen is feelin the same pain. I haven't gone to the barber shop in over 3 months cuz i've been givin myself a fade to save $15 extra a month.

 

That sucks... I usually rock a **** in the winter/ buzz in the summer... I got my haircut at a salon for the first time in 3 or 4 years a few weeks ago... $15 dolla! Haha.

 

Well i have to get a haircut every 2 weeks, i wont even leave my house unless i have a fresh cut,but sadly runs me $40 a month.I need to learn to cut my own hair.
