Hi, I’m Mike from 1A Auto. We’ve been selling auto parts for over 30 years!
We're going to check our air filter here. This'll be basically the same as changing it. Unclip these two top things. Air box is going to separate. It's sitting on two pins on this side. Just kind of pull the air filter out, slide it up between the two halves. This one's nice and clean, it's in good shape, you don't need to replace it.
We'll take this filter and just reinstall it because it's in great shape. It was a new filter, you'd install a new one just like this. Make sure it sits nice and even and flat with this rubber part on the outside. I didn't take the air box really out of those pins, I just kind of opened it up. Now we close it back up, hook the clips. That's how we change the air filter.

Why you Should Replace Not Restore Headlights
See why replacing your cloudy headlights with new ones is always better than refinishing them Why should you replace your headlights and not clean or refinish them? Three reasons: It's a simple fix, it increases visibility, and it enhances the overall look of your vehicle. Headlights are made from a polycarbonate plastic that can be damaged by UV rays from the sun or suffer pitting caused by road debris light salt and rocks. If you look closely at an old set of headlights, you'll see that the lens is full of micro-cracks. This is called crazing. This crazing, along with pinning, will turn your headlights from crystal clear to hazy yellow and it cuts the output in half, making it very difficult to see at night. It also makes your car look old and dated. With parts from 1AAuto.com and our how-to videos, you can make your vehicle look new and stay safe on the road.
