Cabin Air Filter Kit (96-04 Tacoma)

Description

Early generations of the Tacoma, 4Runner, Tundra, and Sequoia were great trucks, built to take a beating and keep on ticking. In that light, climate control systems were options, and none of these vehicles included a cabin air filter to keep the dirt and dust of the daily grind - or worse when pushed off pavement - at bay.

Painstakingly designed  to maximize surface area - and thus increase airflow - the AdventureTaco cabin air filter series is comprised of durable, high-quality components, sports a MERV8 filter, and introduces a hassle-free, tool-less installation and filter change.

Keep your cab and your lungs clean.

Filter details

AdventureTaco cabin air filters utilize an electrostatic filter material that deliveres a MERV5 rating to positively affect air quality and your health. It filters particles down to 3 microns in size, including:

• leaves and twigs
• dirt and dust particles
• lint and hair
• pollen

Air Flow

There's no getting around the fact that adding a filter to a vehicle - that was never designed to accommodate a filter - results in the reduction of airflow. The AdvenureTaco filter design has reduced the impact as much as possible by eliminating more of the frame and filter-supporting grid - thus increasing the size of the filter - compared to previous solutions, but there's still a trade-off for clean cabin air. We've also sourced a high-performance electrostatic filter material that provides increased filtering capabilities with decreased resistance to airflow.

This chart shows the impact of a typical MERV8 filter (blue) used by previous implementations, as well as the high performance AdventureTaco electrostatic air filter (orange) on airflow through each vent at each of the four fan settings.

Also, unlike other products out there, the introduction of AdventureTaco thumbscrews allows such simple, toolless installation, that filter swaps can be easily completed with only your fingers in under three minutes.

Replacement Filters

Cabin air filters should be inspected and replaced every 3-6 months. Replacement filters are available at a significant discount, and we're working toward a signup-and-save model so you never have to think about when to replace your filter; we'll remember for you!
