Air Cabin Filter

Post by 17yearsofboost »

I just got a replacement Cabin Air Filter from FCP. I pulled out the cowl right below the windshield. To my surprise there was no filter over the fan motor. i could see right to the blower motor. There was only an oval plastic ring. Where's the filter located on my 94 T-5? :oops:

Simple answer - you don't have one. Lots of these earlier cars didn't come with one standard, thus you also need the retainer - http://www.fcpgroton.com/product-exec/p ... 93-1996%29 Or, visit your local pick-a-part, and start pulling up cowls until you find a retainer.

Cabin filters came standard in late 97, not before.
As was said you need the very cheap adaptor kit
