Has antone replaced their Pollen filter yet

My car had 51K miles on it and I and curious if it is time. Has anyone done this yet? If so where were the filters located. Acura claims there are two for $17 a piece? Where would you guys suggest buying them for less?

Yes I had mine replaced at the dealer around the same mileage... There is a great write up on how to change it yourself, can't find the link... Pep Boys, or a major autoparts store should have it...

I replaced mine at 35k and it was really filthy. I got the filters for $15 ea. I did the install myself, it is really easy. They are located behind the glove box. Like babyblue said there is a good write up on the subject..

I just installed the FRAM charcoal air filters that I got at Advanced Auto Parts for $24 a pair....don't know if they're any better than the regular filters. I guess I'll have to wait till I drive past a smelly ass truck or a dead skunk.
