KJ 2004 Cabin filter (European model)

[Minesthechevy]

Hi, can anyone please give me a part number for the title filter? It was pulled yesterday during an aircon service and the garage couldn't source a new one. I have to say I couldn't spot one using an image search today.

TVM.

I don't think they have one normally, i'd guess someone has found something to fit the hole. Any numbers on it?

I bought a Cabin air filter adaptor for a Chevy Colorado and fitted it over the liberty plastic housing. You have to be creative. It uses the filter off the KK model.

Oh interesting! I like that. I did a more generic version where I measured the overall dimensions, got a cabin air filter to match the size, and then used studs screwed into the OE filter and added makeshift flat tin as a clamp. I notice that the fan has a harder time pulling air in now, though.

OP I tried in vain to get the Euro version - it's just not available to the US. If you were in EU then you should be able to find it under the "cherokee" model.

Did you just cut out or remove the OE screen and then friction-fit the adapter? How does it work - I'm very interested in a write-up!

Yes, I cut the old screen out. Then I cut a slit in the old housing for the new filter bracket wings slide through. Then I used weather stripping on the bottom of the new filter bracket. Sat it on top of the old housing and tightened down. Trust me it was super easy. You could even epoxy it and be creative. Since mine I have done three others. My brother in law uses the AFE cabin filter and there was no reduction in air flow or strain on the motor. However that filter coast way more. I use a HEPA cabin filter part number is for the KK model and there is a slight reduction in air flow. But not enough for me to worry about.
What's nice about it is it's super easy to change out. I bought a riveting tool to pop the last two rivets out but not pull the whole Windshield Wiper Cowl off. Then you just reach in undo the clip, change the filter and clip back down. Honestly, about two minutes to change the filter.

Well I'll eat my words... there's a Euro filter!
I'll have a look and see if mine has one.
