Got my cabin air filter from Advance. Fairly reasonable price. Made by Fram.

Bought mine at NAPA for around $9.

Does anybody know if the Heater / AC performance effected if the cabin filter is dirty? I think the filter is standard on the Park Avenue I dream of.

Damn these new fangle options !

It appears to me that all outside air passes through the cabin filter so there has to be an effect on heater and AC performance although how much is hard for me to say.

Yes, the cabin air filter is at the inlet to the blower (Bonnevilles), and when fouled with dirt, dust & grime will adversely affect air flow cfm across the filter. Harry, The Park Ave Ultra is my dream car.
