  • Today I'm going to show you the easiest way to replace a cabin air filter in an F150. This video will cover most late model F150s. The process is simple and only requires minimal tools. A 7mm socket, a trim removal tool, and a new cabin air filter. In this video we will go step by step through the replacement of the cabin air filter.

    Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill Ford did a great job in designing this job to replace it.

    You have to be kidding. It was easy to replace the cabin filter on my old Silverado. Not so easy on my F-150. It's a poor design to involve all these steps. This is not the only stupid design flaw that I have found on my F-150.

      You might be able to look the clips up on Tasca or get the part numbers and search for them. They definitely do feel like they are going to break sometimes when you are really pulling on them.

    Thank you for the video 👍. I dont know how the other brands do it, but Dam Ford, was there no way to make this faster/easier/less clips that will break? These trucks range from high 30s to 90k plus. And r work trucks many times. It should be easier/faster to do this job. These clips will get brittle and break just in time for replacement parts to become obsolete. Ill be doing mine soon
