DIY: Adding In-Cabin air filter to the 370Z

Hmm, I still have the musty, mildew smell in my 2011 Z when I blow just air (no A/C). Is this normal?

I finally had some time to mess around with the car this weekend and decided to install the ac filter.... only to find out the car already had one in there from the factory.
Atleast I learned how to take whole glovebox apart.

I still have the exact same problem. I try leave the A/C on so I don't get the bad smell. I also notice the bad smell only comes out when blowing COLD air with no A/C. When you turn up the heat there is no bad smell. I also recently changed the air filter so I know it's probably not the filters problem. I'm not really sure what the deal is. I think I'm going to spray some febreeze on the air filter and hopefully it blows good smelly air instead of stinky ones.
