That's the nastiest cabin air filter I've ever seen, by far!

It is located behind the glove box. There is a DIY video on how to change the cabin filter on this website.

FYI people, mouse droppings in the cabin filter are not that unheard of......i've replaced filters in a couple Gs and I've come across two with mouse droppings. However, those only contained like 1 or 2 droppings and not the crazy amount shown in the OP's pic. Our engine bay has lots of tight dark spaces little critters would love to sleep in

It's really not difficult to change the filter, so do it ASAP people

Cabin Filter is very important to your health and making your car a joy to be in. Also maintaining the car will make it worth more and last much longer. When I got the car it has a moldy type smell when ever I would kick the AC On (cabin filter / treatment). Over the last 5 months I have done bunch of maintenance before I start modding

Valve Covers (BOTH UNDER WARRANTY)
Compression Rod Bushings (BOTH UNDER WARRANTY)
Manual Transmission Fluid
Differential Fluid
Oil change using German Castrol
Rear Brake pads
New rear tires
Alignment
Air filter
Cabin Filter
Z-tube
Clutch fluid
Power Steering Fluid
Coupe Mid pipe
PVC (This week or next week)
Nismo Shift ****
Check Spark plugs


Next plans in the coming 3-6 months

Springs
Spark Plugs
Belts
Brake flush
Lower Mrev 2 knockoff (OEM AUTO PLENUM + Port/polishing)
Spacer
HR Y-pipe
