I have a 2009 ,
with the glove box out right now,waiting on the filter door = shaft
that's whats it is called on the parts page anyway, I broke mine getting it off
and it did NOT have a filter,
I went to autozone gave them a number on the dyi thread
fram 10157 I think it crossed to stp caf7799 its a charcoal filter for 15.99
I slid it in and it fits just a tad long but will work
link to the filter door
