Cabin Air Filter

After looking in the owners manual, it appears we have one, but no information on how to change/find it. Anyone know where it's at?

Filter in my wife's Toyota after two years. It was even worse when it first came out of the car. This is after I grabbed it from the trash to take a photo.

x2!

How often should you change one of those things? Every time you change engine air filter?

at least it keeps that junk out of the heater box and away from the blower motor.

She drives a ton of miles and parks the car outside. The 3 year old filter in my mom's Camry was not nearly as bad. I think every 2 or 3 years is plenty, but it really depends on your conditions. The fram cabin air filter is only like 15 bucks on Amazon.

I changed the cabin filter annually in the spring every year on the Mazda. It got pretty filthy around here with dust, and if you noticed any faint odors, it could usually be attributed to the CAF.
