    Toyota here charges like $65 to change it. It's a lot cheaper to get the filter, or wash the old one, or make your own and install it yourself. Great video.

    2006 - 2012 Tacoma factory part # for the cabin air filter is 87139-YZZ09.


    TYC brand, cabin air filter, part # CAF800038P for the 2006 to 2012 Tacoma is a very decent cabin air filter. Can be purchased at Amazon.com for $8.11.

    Yeah the TYC filters are great. Prices seems to fluctuate a lot. As Sherlock says, they're now $8.11 each. I bought back in May 2011 for $4.77 each.

    I bought 6 of them from Logical-Source for $3.62 each plus shipping. They fit perfectly!!

    I just notices that they also sell new heater Blower Fan Assembly for $34.22.

    HERE IS THE LINK

    Cheers.

    Remembered that I was supposed to order some for my wife's Rav4. The shipping cost barely changed when I increased the number of filters from 1 to 4. Nice!!!

    Are there any choices on filter type like your home return air filter. I'd like to put one in that filters our everything! I work in a very industrial area, have dogs and have allergies. Thanks in advance.
