Cabin filters are a bit of a gimmic in my opinion.You walk around all day in unfiltered air and they dont remove pollutants. My buds with C6's tell me they dont keep dust levels down any better than their C5's.You would have to walk around with a respirator and keep your vette in a clean room, sealed like a vault ,to really have any benefits from one.

My Aztek had a cabin filter, it didn't seem to do much. And at over $25 to replace them it was a waste. They last several years so they can't be doing much anyway.

Not one on a C5 - C6 has one.

I assume you didn't read the year and half old thread at all.
