Cabin air filter change

Hello all,
I'm new to thiwelcome, as i am a new owner of an 09 r3, but I know most of my way around the format(I own an 85 rx7 so I'm familiar with that format). Anyway I have searched to no avail, to find a thread on the S2 cabin air filter location and replacement. I have the fsm for the S1 but I wondered if it was the same location. I looked at the glovebox area but couldn't see much. Any help/ tips/ advice is welcome.

Its not still located behind the glove box?
On the S1 you needed to remove the glove box to get access to the cabin filter

It's still behind the give box in the S2. Open the glove box. Release the little bar on the right side that limits how far it opens by popping it off. When it opens more, squeeze the sides in so the tabs on the sides are free then just pop the give box out.

The door that holds the cabin air filters in is now visible behind the glove box area.

Sorry, no pics. Posting from my iPhone from memory. There are several DIY's on how to do this though with pics and all.

Thanks guys I took a quick look the other day but didn't dig too deep as I thought it was more involved than a couple tabs
