This is one of the most useful videos I've ever seen on KZbin. Thanks!!!

[@jeremybrown1569]

Holy crap. I have been driving myself crazy trying to figure out how to change my filter and it never occurred to me that I just don’t have one…. Will be ordering this kit. Thank you!

[@stephenblaisdell5326]

Thanks my wife and I have a Ram 1500 and I didn't know we could do that. Just went out and looked behind the glove compartment and it looks like I'll be able to do this my self. Thanks once again.

[@Yawwee]

I didn't even know that RAM 1500 came with a cabin filter or how to add one ... thank you Sergio, going to check my 06 Mega Cab out tomorrow and see what I've got !!!!!!! You da man, Sergio !!!!!

[@BS7-rpt]

That's so crazy! In seven years, my husband said he's never changed his 2015 Ram Lonestar cabin filter. I got him one from AutoZone, and low and behold ... was told it didn't have one! Thanks for the great video ... sorry you cut your hand.

[@bradleyfoss8933]

working on it today. I purchased a filter and the mod cap is in the glove box. Looks like I am cutting tomorrow. Great job.

[@jm1551701]

Thank you for this video, I went to go and put a cabin filter and I noticed just like yours sealed up, I did not know there was a kit, of which I just ordered it was a little more then I wanted to spend but its one time, next time I just need a filter, Thanks again for your instructional video it helped immensely .

[@JeremyN1978]

Perfect. Just took 30 minutes to do this myself. Between this and another vid, it’s done. Thanks man!! What a pain for a big dude like myself. 🤣

[@polarbear111000]

Wow, awesome suggestion regarding the addition of an odor eliminator on the filter. I've never seen this done. Very cool. I own both a 2018 RAM 3500 dually, and an '18 NSX, so I'll be doing this with both. Cheers.

[@MRP.Germany]

Great video man and thank you!!! I didn't know that my Ram didn't have a cabin air filter. I was looking for videos to change the filter and when I saw your setup, it looks just like mine. I will definitely order the kit!!!!! Thanks again!!!

[@salvadorortiz5523]

tnk u very much. thats whats a great help

[@salvadormadera1258]

thanks for the heads up just bought a Ram 2009 going to check and see if I have one. please post more on your ram.

[@MichaelBrown-ke8dn]

Thanks for showing the details in this modification

[@stevegarcia2928]

Thanks for your informative video. I didn't realize that I don't have a cabin filter on my 2015 Ram 1500. The dealership was going to charge me $78.88 before tax to "replace" it. I've never had a cabin filter on any of my vehicles and am going to opt out of installing one since it never had one to begin with.

[@dannyshipley5156]

Thanks...I was questioned there for a bit But after I seen ur vlog...it was easy peezy 😮

[@mikeinnovationgraphicswrap3763]

Thank you for this! My mechanic did tell me that RAMs didn't have cabin filters but I guess he didn't know about this. I'll pass it on. Thanks again 👍👍

[@mikeinnovationgraphicswrap3763]

I'll be ordering mine today 😁

[@rennells]

This is hugely helpful! I don’t have that cover and will be getting that kit!

[@marklourenco7152]

Good video man. Thanks for that. Interested in more Ram videos if you do some more mods.

[@calsol22]

Great video from a ram owner!!!!👍🏾

[@ShadesWade]

the new dc5 tow truck!!! nice choice Sergio!

[@frankj19758]

If that's your Ram, it looks awesome! I just picked up my 2009 Ram Crew Cab Big Horn. I love it, & will continue to buy them after this one!

[@jameszunick7828]

Thanks, you did a great job,very clear and concise.👍

[@stevedavidson1339]

Excellent video!! Explained installation perfectly !!! Thanks !!

[@chuckwalz511]

Glad I watched this video. Now I know why I wasn’t able to find my filter. It didn’t have one!!

[@justovalverde2810]

Great video, very important informations. Thank you for sharing.

[@garyriley3154]

Very useful! Had to order the cover! Ugh! It will be done when it comes to my door in 3 days!

[@jamesoverstreet35]

[@phunk875]

I got myself a 2013 Ram 1500 and I went out and bought an air filter expecting to change it.. boy, was I wrong lmao.

[@rfchip9686]

Great video. Ran out and checked to find out my 2500 did not have the filter so ordered kit. Thanks for the advice on using a blade.

[@enegronii]

Thanks for the video brother. I know for a fact that my 2016 Ram does not have the filter. So I will be doing this install really soon. Good idea on using the Odor Eliminator spay.

[@aame101486]

Thanks for the video brotha! Very informative! Gonna do this on my 2014 Ram, when i turn on AC it smells funny lol 😂, i assume its because cab in air filter needs to be changed. Thanks alot! Post more videos about your RAM!!

[@mauibull808]

Thanks Man! Very helpful...I work on my son's '12 Ram 1500. Next is to remove / tighten Exhaust Manifold bolts to minimize the "ticking" sound from engine.

[@BBD40]

Run 5w30 oil, ticking goes away

[@slivic83]

ONE OF THE BEST STEP BY STEP VIDEOS IVE EVER SEEN ON KZbin, YOUR A LIFE SAVER BRO, I GOT SERIOUS BREATHING ISSUES AND THIS IS THE FIRST VIDEO I FOUND THAT SHOWED AND EXPLAINED IN DETAIL HOW TO PUT IN THE MOD. Can you tell me if this would work in a 2006?

[@scoutGOW]

Best video on this thank you! Just got it done!

[@carltonbauer2779]

I thought I was going crazy. I really didn't have a cabin filter access door. Thanks much.

[@rolandgonzales5260]

Thanks! I will be replacing mine for the first time and your video really helped a lot.

[@annapinky361gorgo9]

Thank you for the video. Very helpful. I can do it myself now so I don't need my husband to do it for me. Thanks again.

[@johnsoto973]

Thanks man, This was a major help!

[@funlovingJohn]

Thank you for sharing, The soldering gun looks to big to get in to do the job and way to hot. I modified a Weller (pencil type) soldering iron tip to except a modified #11 Ex-ado blade and made a easy perfect cutout without any loose derby getting down into the fan. I cut down a new larger cabin filter I had left over from a car I sold on my band saw. Size 7.25" X 8" and about .75" thick. I used duct tape instead of the $18 leaky front plate with the easy to brake off plastic latches. Duck tape was designed for air ducks and a 9" strip seals tightly.

[@wildernessman760]

Thanks that helps a lot I'm going to order the kit for myself. Good how to video.

[@bradstrong3338]

Thank you so much bro on a good informative video!

[@georgebonney90]

U gotta do ur review of this truck can't wait thank u sir

[@EstateDev]

Thanks man! I've had my truck 4 years and bought a K&N filter to find I didn't have access.

[@jimwhitford4879]

Thank you I have a 2012 Ram 3500....very useful information

[@mrejr27446]

Great info thank you for the detailed directions.

[@engmohamalhakeem7651]

Its good....I was searching for it👍

[@melrobinson6919]

Gee wiz, I owned cars for decades before cabin air fiters became a thing and never suffered any negative consequences. My early '16 doesn't have the filter, and I'm not going to do this mod. Might be helpful to some people, such as if they are sensitive to dust and pollen, perhaps, so more power to them doing this. Ram sure cheaped out on their vehicles. Having the capability to have the filter in place while saving very little by not having it is a head scratcher.

[@raymondmercier6548]

Video is very good and I learned a lot thank you

[@satxification]

Thanks for showing the part number of the cover - found one on Amazon.

[@AdrianaZen]

This was helpful! Thank you

[@NetNana06]

Thank you for this informative video 🙂

[@rodgerjohnson733]

Would love to see a RAM 1500 done with a shaker style hood! I think that would be bad ass!

[@originaljando]

Trust me, a knife 🔪 with a sharp 3 inch blade and a good handle will let you cut through this with ease. Complete install in about 15 minutes. No dremel tool or sanding necessary. 👍🏼

[@jamesalbritton9745]

thank you so much, great information!

[@nelsonbardsley3535]

Good info, thanks

[@louindorato6855]

I used oscillating tool to cut it out. Came out perfect. Yes do a separate video please

[@deant876]

Beside filtering the outside air coming in because of allergies, it will help keep the heater core and AC evaporator (the outside of them) from plugging up with the dirt in the air. It is a pain to change them out for a lack of airflow at the vents

[@MrRonster3310]

I just bought a 2017 Ram 1500 SLT and it came with a cabin air filter! Just thought that you would like to know.

[@hectororozco6288]

Now I just called my maintenance guy to explain where he put the last cabin air filter he chargme now that I know my Ram comes without !

[@lttruck2973]

I just bought a filter and discovered mine is the same way. No current port for the filter. For a Ram that has just about everything "options" in it. No cabin filter...go figure.

[@GermanShepherdDaphne]

Yeah. No shit. They kept telling me to change cabin filter. There isn’t one. Can’t wait to rag on them

[@frankj19758]

Anyway to get more money 💰 because they think we are stupid. I do all my own repairs & if it's beyond my skill set, I have people that I can trust who won't fuck me over. Make sure you do the same.

[@dannybarnes874]

I have an 09 and will check. Thanks

[@ProMediaLLC]

Thank you very much. Well done.

[@abraxxxas66]

Thank you brother

[@abdulsadiq6222]

Thanks fam I didn’t even know

[@frankshearer4412]

Thank you.

[@nickrussett259]

Always make sure you never totally release to quick

[@toniray9114]

I am a single woman on disability and really didn't want to spend the money at the dealership to have my BOTH air filters replaced! Thank you, Thank you! Im kinda handy & like to do things that I can. Nothing to it. You were very clear and concise, and you REALLY helped me! I have the 2014 EcoDeisel Limited BADASS TRUCK and I LOVE it!!!!!! any other words of advice?? I have a Tonneau that the hinge is a little bent and docent sit on it right?????? Help

[@ecoDieselWV]

love the comment at the end

[@waaliwakki]

Great instructions Sir! I also worked for Chrysler Academy and they have so .any accessories ONE available.

[@bol922]

I have a 14 Ram. Are u planning on any tuning or future mods?

[@cesarmorales2352]

Very helpful thank you

[@Str8pipedodge]

2017 they started coming from the factory with the cabin filter.

[@wdup45]

OMG!, I have been wondering how I can open and change the cabin filter of my 2015 ram. After watching your video, I realized that I had to do cutting. That's mean, the cabin airfilter of my ram has never been changed for 8 years 😢 I get it to inspection every 2 years and none of the machic bother to let me know 😒 Thanks for the video

[@waynebauerjr7426]

Those do not come as a kit from ram. They are just two different part numbers. 6840648AA & 68052292AA The only Ram I've seen come with the cabin filter is the Rebel so far. I work for the parts department for a Ram dealership. Great video.

[@kuntryboi867]

Thanks for the info, I just bought a '14 sport and was surprised it didn't have one.

[@donaldgreen9292]

my 17 Ram 1500 express came with a cabin filter.

[@patriotfighter331]

Good video. thanks

[@vikingbikernjtink1198]

Great Hack... Mine was just like yours... except mine is a 2011, Ram 2500, PowerWagon

[@owensmith1258]

Thank you very much.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@chadweist6214]

Thank you went to go change mine and was stumped on how to get in there.

[@therealDYL93]

That's very odd that they wouldnt have one but yet have a perfect outline to cut one out. Almost like they were at the factory like " ehhhh... the hell with it no need for a cabin air filter" lol. By the way I have a 16 ram and it came with the filter.

[@tuxpowerpc]

I have to wonder how much debris I have in my vents because of no cabin filter. My truck is nine years old and I just discovered I do not have one. Personally I think it's tachy that for what these vehicles cost they do not have one. On another note, I would think the freshiner spray being used would attrack dust more and possibly make the filter become dirtier faster or perhaps clogged if you live in a dusty environment. Thanks for the video, it was helpful.

[@thomasparis8437]

Thanks I was wondering what happened no slot for filter I think I might use a hot knife to cut mine though

[@WHITETAIL215]

You cutting the inside or outside of the raised outline

[@joelima3756]

Thanks for the info know I know where it goes THANKS 😊 👍

[@glennpruett58]

Thank you!

[@johnwellison9402]

Thank you for that

[@jorgearturocorpus1622]

Tank u , very helpful..

[@MrArmageddon26]

This videos was alot 9f help alot of the videos I watched just showed the cover but they didn't say that some years may not have one

[@FragoutDesign]

Thanks man! going to go check now im pretty sure i dont have one and i thought i did lol

[@alanskonieczny6248]

The part you are cutting does have backwards tabs on the sides. What happens if you remove that cover instead of cutting it?

[@tuxie777]

good good man..thanks......

[@mlaugh3]

good job. I am going to do this...............

[@glenngriffin9449]

what sound system do you have in your ram let me know

[@keithfrank1303]

I just ordered a a kit off Ebay for under $9.00 . Also this is the second vid that there was a little issue with cover snapping in I noticed that the little spot center bottom was not trimmed out .

[@kam75]

use a blade attached to soldering iron 👍🏻

[@TheVill4in]

My truck smells like dirt when I turn the air on... I assume this is why. Thank you.

[@michaelmappin4425]

Were you cutting inside the raised bump line?

[@elgamazacatecas6670]

Does the 2016 2 door express model 5.7l have one?

[@lomanigaunavinaka1208]

I just did this to my 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 and its actually pretty easy to install. I'm having problems with my dash board vents. There's no air blowing from there at all. What can the problem be? PLEASE HELP!!

[@danielmorgan1104]

Where do you get the Total Release spray from?

[@wolfdogaerial2859]

Thanks

[@jaybee6884]

Yo, was there an existing filter already in there?

[@richierich1169]

Brother, you just got yourself another sub. But I have a question zip hope you can answer. I wad just checking to see if my 2010 ram 1500 actually had a cabin filter. It doesn't. I nred to do this hack. However. What in the world is on top of the box? It looks like am air inlet. But a big space between it and the filter box. Any ideas? Thanks.

[@sderden]

That's the air intake and its normal to see that. Remember the air comes in from the top and filters downward.
