Hi guys,

I can't seem to find the cabin/pollen filter in my 1996 Subaru Impreza LX 1.6

I've already removed the glovebox but it is not there. Any suggestions where can I find it.

Cheers,

Jimmy

Agree, I don't think cabin filters were put on any 96 models. My 98 & 99 don't have them either.

US market vehciles did not have them at that time. Not sure about markets.

If its not somewhere behind the glove box or under the blower box/housing, the only other place it might be is under the wiper cowl panel where the fresh air vent for the blower is.

I am pretty sure it simply doesn't have.

I can't seem to find pollen filter in catalogs and neither in the car. I've checked behind glove box and under the wiper panel and blower housing but found nothing. I have to agree that probably in 96 they simply didn't build it with pollen filters.

Thx for the answers guys!
