Cabin Air Filter

Wondering if anyone here knows the location of the filter and if it is difficult to replace.

I don't know for sure, but I'm assuming it's behind the glove box as other Hyundai cars have the cabin filter located there.

I replaced one on an '03 Elantra I had, and it was behind the glove box and wasn't hard to replace.

It is behind the glove box, The owners manual shows how to replace it.

It seems straight forward.

True, behind the glove box, and yes, the manual shows how to replace it, however when I tried to get to it, I could not get the clips out. I was afraid that I would break the the clips, so last time I had the oil changed, I asked the Genesis Tech how to do it. At first, even he had a problem unhooking the clips. After working on it for a few minutes, he did get the clips unhooked. He said he had to pull the hooks back, then in towards each other. (I had tried that before, but I could not get them unhooked). Some day when I have more time, I will try again.

The main thing is that (on my car at least) it sounds easier than it is.
