    Great vid shoot! now I have a question. Mine did not have a filter and recently something sounding like leaves are in the vent system. Is there somewhere to open the duct work to see if there is something in there? Once again great vid. Roy

    You may have to drop the fan motor. Not a biggie. Fig. AC-24 shows only 3 bolts holding it in

    Just did the DIY Washable Cabin Air Filter mod. Used the Chris video and the TN write up. Made the frame 8" but had to make the grid and filter mtl about 1/4" smaller so the frame would fit. Thanks Chris and Padilla1880

    I'm monkey C monkey du and I didn't notice the strut in the video. It almost broke off the little top plastic peg without knowing it, so I looked at the video a few more times and saw you took it off on the bottom hole, so just thought I'd point that out in case I'm not the only blind one.
