Thank you, I wish I watched your video before I broke the plastic around the white pins in the glovebox.

Thanks for commenting. I feel your pain. It stinks when you deliberately try to take care of something and it breaks in the process. 😓
If the design of the glove box was just a fraction of an inch different, it all would be easy. Still, glad I could help.

@@reidthemanual when I bought my PIU, the airflow from the vents was pretty poor. I think my cabin filter was as dirty as the one you showed. The flow improved once I replaced it. I agree about the weird design. Another one is a hard to reach location of the inside fuse box. Also, the second row bench is so close to the front seats. I wonder if captain seats would give more legroom.
