Where is the air conditioning filter element located in the Fit?

The air conditioning filter element in the Fit is located inside the blower behind the glove box on the passenger side. To replace the filter element, you need to remove the glove box on the passenger side, then open the air conditioning filter cover to perform the replacement. The air conditioning filter is an important component of the air conditioning system and requires regular replacement. Generally, it is recommended to replace the air conditioning filter every 10,000 kilometers for most vehicles. The Fit is a hatchback model launched by GAC Honda, with dimensions of 4065 mm in length, 1695 mm in width, and 1525 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2530 mm. The Fit adopts Honda's new family-style front grille design concept, integrating the grille with the headlights to highlight a sharp and sporty appearance. The side profile features a distinctive sporty blade-style double waistline design, complemented by a dynamic rear-end styling with LED taillights, presenting a more premium texture.
Last time I replaced the Fit's cabin air filter myself, it's located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. You'll need to empty the glove box first, then firmly press the plastic clips on both sides to make the glove box drop down. See that rectangular cover panel at the back? Just pry open the cover and you can pull out the old filter. Remember the filter has directional arrows - insert the new filter in the same orientation. The whole process takes about ten minutes, saving you 200 yuan in labor costs compared to going to the 4S shop. I recommend changing it every six months, especially during seasons with lots of willow catkins in northern regions.
