I got this idea from doing BBA's antenna mod. So with cowl trim off I got to see how dusty it was in there.

So I ended up cutting out some strips of filter to fit over the cowl trim openings. I used small hobby wire to hold it there. Also it looks like GM did plan to put a cabin filter in but ended up covering it up with a plate. You guys sure they didn't do it for models in other markets.

The filter I used is from a International truck, part number 1699956C1 it was $4.80 canadian (so I'm sure it will be $1.80 for you US guys)

I have the templates still, I'll get them scaned in as a PDF so you can print them and trace them out if you like.

Also a note if you plan on doing it, to get the wiper blades off - the black nut on the arms is a "plastic cap" ya I wrecked mine....

Can you send me a pic of where your antenna base is sitting?

nice mod idea!!!!
do you know of the filter is being effective?
also is the filter waterproof?
do black caps pop right off?

I would be interested in knowing about the waterproof thing also.
