G35 Sedan cabin air filter - Musty smell

What's up guys. I have a 2006 G35 Sedan 2WD and I'm trying to find a great deal on an OEM (Nissan part) cabin air filter with the layer of activated charcoal. Can someone direct me where to get one at a good price because the damn dealership wants to rip me off. $120 with install and A/C coil clean..

I have that musty smell coming out of the A/C vents. I'm going to use the BG frigi fresh spray that kills all the bacteria on the A/C coil. Anyone have any instruction on the proper way to clean the A/C coil..?

Plus i can't believe i have this kind of smell on an expensive car... This is bull.

Thanks again

Usually I use a stick of deodorant to clean up any musty smells :P

I have a Sentra as well and it uses the same filter. Bought it for less than $13 bucks each at Advance Auto (online is partsamerica.com) and did it myself. It's really easy to install.

The first time I did it I bought the OEM nissan filter but I couldn't tell the difference with these aftermarket filter.

I just realized you wanted the charcoal one so you can ignore my post.

The cabin filter should be replaced once every year.
