I went to the local Pepboys store to buy Redline 75-W90 oil when I noticed this cabin air filter for Dodge Charger\Magnum and Chrysler 300.
This one is made of activated carbon just like the OEM(RealOEM.com list for $49.36 Each).
So, to make the story short, some hot glue sticks and cardboard(from the packaging) and some trimmings, I made a
homemade cabin air filter.
cost:
Purolator C35677 $12.99 (Need two)
Hot Glue Sticks $ 6.00
Mod Fix= Priceless

My camera broke after the last shot so I'll buy a new pair of filters and take pictures with my kid's camera. So stay tuned
