Made me laugh.:rofl2:

But that just shows the new guy is actually searching and reviewing posts before asking new questions.

So it is just 2009 Z that do not have filters?

cf10157 is in my 09 right now.

i should swap it out this spring.

if anyone wants to try it on their ride, darkside goes face down. GL

Bumping in 2022 because I just went to install the cabin filter in my car. Not replace, but install. The car is 2009, 15k miles on the clock, fully original and yes - without a cabin filter. Why, I've got no idea. It didn't have any funky smells as the car was garaged since day one, but I'm happy to have installed a filter.
I bought the one I found on Amazon: Blue Print ADN12543 Carbon Cabin Filter, and I can confirm it fits the slot perfectly. Dimensions are as stated: Length: 217 mm, Width: 199.5 mm, Height: 20 mm

This thread is immortal :stirthepot:

So filip00, after a few months, what is your verdict with your purchase?
I am about to purchase one.

Still happy with it. Only several days ago, I had to check it, as I was routing wires from the cabin to the engine bay for the oil pressure gauge, and have rechecked filter, looks brand new and solid. Would definitely recommend.

The only thing to note though, as someone mentioned - the compartment door has these notches on the bottom side, so that it will push against any filter you put in the compartment, but if you're careful, you can close the door under the filter, so that it's not squeezed and sits just as it's supposed to. When you go change it, you'll see what I mean.
