Cabin Air Filter CF10134 for Honda Accord, Civic, Odyssey, CR-V, Acura MDX, TSX, TLX, RDX, with Activated Carbon Beads, Durable and Sturdy

I am not sure why the Amazon car garage didn't show up on this item's link. I like when I see Amazon's Yes or No on if the item will be compatible with cars I have (Acura TLX 2015). I was able to verify through the info on the page that it was a match for my car. The quality is miles better than a filter I bought for the same price. It is heavier and has the regular accordion filter but the opposite side has this honeycombed design and each honeycomb has charcoal beads inside meant to absorb odors. I am hopeful this will somehow help me pull out some mold odors I sometimes smell in my car - not exactly sure where its coming from, but likely a small leak somewhere from rain water. It was somewhat easy to swap out with my old filter. The filter needed to be tilted at a certain angle and shimmied inside the compartment and the covers were a bit hard to snap back in b/c of the girth. I did make sure to leave the ribbon side out but it was right in the way of where my cover snaps in. Could be improved if the ribbon was relocated to the middle of an edge. I wish it would come with instructions printed out. The piece of paper it came with told me to scan a QR code and I don't like to use them. Would be nice if it was just printed on the item or somewhere on the item page for instructions to look at. It is certainly a higher quality feeling filter than the one I had in the car. I hope it traps more dust and other things that a filter should get. I am happy it was the right fit for my car. Will see in a few months what is trapped in here. I have been googling and still don't really know if I put it in correctly. My car has an arrow pointing down for Air Flow and when I pulled the old filter out, the top side was dirtier, so I followed suit and put the accordion paper side up (charcoal beads downwards). It was very confusing so if anyone knows, please let me know if I did it right.

Wrong filter does not fit

I was very impressed at the quality of the cabin air filter and was exited to try it but unfortunately it stated it would fit a 2023 Honda Accord and it DOES NOT. The filter was about an inch larger.

This ZEZUT CP134/CF10134 Cabin Air Filter was evaluated in our 2015 Honda Odyssey.This Odyssey is listed among the Honda vehicles for a direct fitment.I liked the construction of this air filter which was much more robust than what I have been using, especially the inclusion of the activated charcoal elements to help remove more air contaminants and make it smell fresher. The filter includes a full perimeter frame which I felt was a great idea, and it is, however the Honda engineers had a different idea in mind when they designed the filter retainer, and that design, coupled with the Zezut full perimeter frame creates a fitment challenge.The Honda filter holder's frame has a "u" shape on the two ends or sides that are supposed to capture a pleat of the cabin filter to help hold it in place and prevent air from bypassing the filter. The OEM cabin filters have no frame on those two sides, so fitting the pleat over the lip of the "U" is simply a drop-in, easy. Because the Zezut filter has a full perimeter frame already built-in and doesn't account for the extra width that this "u" creates, it was pretty tight getting it to squeeze in. With a little bit of pressure I was able to get it fully seated and the foam around the filter will still ensure a seal.With the way the factory holder goes into the vehicle I don't believe the filter can really pop out later, so I think that's a minor concern -- but it's a departure from perfection.Otherwise I'd say the quality looks to be a definite step up from the standard filters, which are super flimsy material with barely anything holding it in shape (though it doesn't *need* anything given the factory carrier, so that's not really a big deal)It would just have been better if the combined designs complimented one another without having to force it into place.
