Just called the dealer to get a price on a cabin filter.

Holy crap!!! $38.40

Going to call NAPA and see what they want for one.

EDIT: $25.34 at NAPA

These are Canadian prices BTW

That's the same price my dealer quoted. That is why I bought a supply from the vendor on ebay...link in thread in the General section here https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/showthread.php?t=8274

I bought the NAPA one for now because mine was black and needed to be changed.

I will definitely watch for that seller when I need more. Good prices, on par with what fleetfilter sells them for.

What happens if you install it backwards? Does it suck all the air out of the car???

Do people with dirty filters smoke in their cars?

I have heard that what gets most of them dirty fast is riding with the windows down and the A/C running. I have yet had to change the one in my wifes 03. It's still clean.

dunno

I need to check on this but....

I was under the impression the cabin filter was needed for air that WAS PULLED FROM THE OUTSIDE. Especially, when members have said they removed leaves, twigs, and other things from it.

EDIT....

disregard the OWNERS Manual says outside AND recirculated air is routed through the filter.
