Exclamation In Cabin Air Filter?

I went to the auto parts store yesterday and they told me if I changed my cabin air filter that would help my a/c run colder. Can anyone tell me where the cabin air filter is? I have looked up in the manuel but it doesn't list anything about that. Any ideas or suggestions would be a great help! Thanks Matt

Hmmm, my '99 doesn't have one, I thought they were only on the Excursions.

I'd like to know also. At one point I was reading my manual and I think it said up under the dash on the passenger side. I think I started looking but got side tracked.

If it's anywhere it upstream of the blower motor. Not after.

i was wondering about this to... my fan doesn't move as much air as it used to.. a pluged up filter would certainly cause this...

Well, I looked and if it's there it's well disguised !!
Let me know what it looks like and how hard it is to replace, if it's there at all !!

Well we can put this issue to rest! I contacted my Ford dealership today and spoke with them about it. The conclusion is that it is a upgradeable option that could have been added but the likely hood of it actualy being on many trucks is not likely, so says the dealership. So don't waste anymore time looking, cause its probably not there!

My dealer mech said I don't have it either.
Sure could use one though, need to quit smoking and purge the stench in there...
