Default Cabin Air Microfilter exchange

Does anyone know how to change out the cabin air microfilter? I just recently ordered two new ones for my Ti, but i am not to sure where the filters are located in the car. I read online that i have to take my glove compartment out and remove a few other pieces and they will be right there in a box. is this right? i havent tried to take it apart yet i wanted to make sure they are there before i start digging away.

Read that link Father put down. It's pretty easy if you follow that.
Just a few quick things,it's not behind your glovebox it's underneath your hood. You have to remove the wire harness assembly which is located behind the intake manifold,you have to remove the screws just to get it out of your way. I did this last spring and took me about 45 minutes.

i would like to say thanks for the help and information on how to change out the microfilter. i just got done replacing both filters in my car and damn the old filters where pretty dirty and looked kinda old. i see now that i will be changing these filters every 15,000 miles like it is suggested. plus changing the filters was pretty easy and fast.
