Cool Re: How to remove the air filter.

I just removed the two screws on the right side and slipped out the old filter and slipped in the new filter (gently open the housing enough to slide the filter out). I didn't like the idea of possibly breaking the plastic components on the left side. No problems with the slide in method. Advanced AutoParts had the Purolator Air Filter for the 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid for $9.88 (A35432). They didn't have the cabin air filter yet but I went ahead and matched the closest one which was Purolator Green boxed Cabin Filter for $12.28. It fit snugly. Just make sure if you use the C35530 to note which way the filter is up and just turn the filter horizontally around until it fits the correct way into the Camry Hybrid. So far, no problems with the cabin filter adjustment.

I tried the NAPA store for both filters but they had neither. No store including Autozone, AutoParts, etc had the 2007 Camry Hybrid exact cabin air filter. Shame! Just for grins, anbody know what the dealer wants for the cabin air filters?

I have a Japan made 2007 Camry Hyrbid. It gets 41 mpg in the city and 43 on the highway. I live and travel to work on flat surfaces and use the accelerate and glide method as it is come to be known.

How do you get the charcoal filter out? Does it ever need to be replaced?

Very informative DIY. Thanks for posting.

As for air filter, try ThePartsBin.com. I got my BMW 330 series air filter there, and their Toyota air filters cost around $50.

I just removed the two bolts and opened up the housing enough to pull the old filter out and put the new one in. I didn't want to mess with undoing everything else just to get the filter swapped. Total time was less than 5 minutes.
