A/C Seat blower filters......

BoilardZ

Hi gang--
I realize this is an old thread, but perhaps someone like me is searching the site for info on the climate-controlled seats. I wanted to answer two questions from this thread:
1. The filters are indeed washable and reusable. They're made from some sort of spun polyester filter material. I washed mine in soapy water and let them dry. Mine weren't really that dirty, even after 40K miles. So I imagine you'll only need to do this once or twice during the life of your car. No need to buy the $100 replacement filters.


2. It's easy to get the "seatback board" off your seat to access the upper filter. You have to remove the seat, and then unhook the two straps that are under the seat. These straps are sewed onto a fabric panel that hangs down from the seatback board. Once they're unhooked, just pry up on the bottom end of the plastic seatback and it will pop off. It's held in by two plastic clips. (See photo.)
Hope that helps!
Steve
