Also make sure to get the carbon activated filter in stead of the paper one.

If you know how to use a screwdriver then you can do this. Its very easy and after doing it yourself you will see how ridiculous the dealer pricing is. You can do this!
Just remember when you slip out the panel that holds the filter in place pull to the right, do not pull it strait out. I did this in the dark and snapped the end of the panel off.

Here is the link to the filter. Make sure you select the "activated carbon" in the materials box.

This is even cheaper! I'll buy mine from here now. Thanks!
like everyone say an easy fix a total of 6 phillip head screw to take out and you are done, you can remove the kick panel if you can't get underneath to remove the screw from the right side, there's one plastic hex nut that holds that panel in place. open the glove box, and remove the four screws on top and two underneath and the glove box should come right out.

damn i really need to switch mine out...my car smells like grimy feet when i turn on the a/c
A carbon filter may not help. It only filters the outside air coming into the blower.
To get rid of the smelly foot smell, try putting the AC on recirculation and spray som disinfectant spray into the passenger footwell near the firewall. repeat a few times.
