FRAM Fresh Breeze cabin filter with charcoal/baking soda! - WuNgUnSVT - 09-16-2011
Don't know if this is new, or mentioned elsewhere....
Just came across this one at the local Canadian Tire...
Should be available at all good automotive parts suppliers.

It has Arm and Hammer baking soda in it, as well as activated charcoal...a steal at $20...
The part number shown is for the Focus 2.0 double overhead cam, I assume all years from 2000-2004.
This one will find a home in the SVT!

My CT (Goderich) only had one, and it was behind the counter.

i know there's a spot for it, but where does this go?

Under the windshield cowl on the passenger side...
Careful you don't unseal the cowl from the windshield!

With some minor modification to both car and filter, it will also fit the 2005-2007 models.

There's a couple of good write-ups on focaljet on a fairly extensive mod (but a real good one) ... if you look at that you'll see the fine wire mesh on top of a housing - I just removed that, cut a filter to size and shoved it into the opening.
My solution is obviously kind of ghetto and in hindsight I think I would have preferred to do the full out mod ... but it worked and only took about 15 minutes.

When I ran a cabin air filter I just plopped it on top of the wire screen and believe it or not, the filter stayed in place and collected quite a bit of debris after a year's time. Ken's solution sounds a little better. lol

I plan on doing the full mod posted on fj Ken mentioned...http://forums.focaljet.com/exterior-modifications/624566-2005-cabin-filter-tutorial.html... Looks a clean mod and would love to run a cabin air filter... Keep that dust down a little more
RE: FRAM Fresh Breeze cabin filter with charcoal/baking soda! - Scorcher000 - 09-20-2011
I need to do that. I'm tired of tasting dust...
RE: FRAM Fresh Breeze cabin filter with charcoal/baking soda! - MuskokaZX3 - 09-20-2011
Yopp... Looks pretty clean too if you do a good job
