Default C7 cabin air filter

I have a 2015 Corvette with z51 option is there a difference in installing the cabin air filter vs a base car?

I suggest you post your question in the C7 forum!

I think the only difference is that it is harder on the Z51 because the oil sump and lines are in the way...you can find videos of install on YouTube

Did my Z51 a few months ago and it was pretty easy.

I know the 2015 is a C7. Sorry. I just asked my question in the wrong area. Nice response.

I think that our teammate is sleeping one. Maybe he used mac sports folding wagon in race. That would be really interesting if we will share some experience - eat immediately

Too bad. I thought Corvette people would be happy to help other Corvette people. Silly me.

Interestingly I just changed the cabin filter on my 2017 (purchased new) and the filter is a Fram CF11181 exactly like the one I purchased from Amazon. No GM part number or other marking. See photo.

Good news is that whether it's a C6 or C7, it is almost exactly the same to change. Same place, same filter.

I think I read somewhere that the air filter is the only part on a C7 in common with a c6.
