Where is the air filter of Volkswagen Bora located?

The air filter of Volkswagen Bora is located in the engine compartment, in front of the driver's seat. The replacement method for the Volkswagen Bora air filter is as follows: 1. Open the engine hood and locate the four screws in front of the wipers, then remove the four screws; 2. Remove the cover plate to see the air filter, and replace it with a new one. The dimensions of the Volkswagen Bora are 4663mm in length, 1815mm in width, and 1473mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2688mm. The front face of the Bora is relatively moderate, with a horizontally stretched front grille design and two chrome trim strips for decoration. The headlight design is conventional, and overall, it has high recognizability.
Last time I spent some time finding the cabin air filter for my family's Bora, it was hidden behind the panel in the glove compartment on the passenger side. You need to remove the entire glove box first—apply some finesse to pop open the clips on both sides and take it out completely, but avoid yanking it forcefully. Inside, you'll see a square cover with plastic clasps; press the clips and slide it open to reveal the filter. This design location is actually quite sensible—placing it in the engine bay would expose it to excessive heat, shortening its lifespan. Here, it's both easy to access and waterproof. I replace it myself every quarter, and it only costs 20 RMB on Taobao, while the dealership charges three times as much. When replacing it, I suggest cleaning out the dust buildup in the air ducts—it makes the AC airflow fresher, and the cooling effect improves noticeably in summer.
