cabin air intake - 99 Legacy L sedan

Does anyone know where the cabin air intake is located and whether there is a filter ? (for a 99 Legacy L 4dr sedan). I looked under the hood and am not able to find it.

The cabin air filter in my '98 Forester was under the glove compartment. Only a couple of screws to remove. In my '03 you have to remove the glove compartment to get at it.

Not all soobs have the filter installed, but I think they are all (from the late 90s ?) built with the capacity to receive a filter. Some folks build their own filters out of household A/C filters. If you want to purchase soob cabin filters, price them from an online discount dealer (I've had good luck from www,subarugenuineparts.com - there are others) OR, make your local dealer match the online price.

Don't know about cost of older model but new ones are over $50 at dealer. I had just cleaned old ones and if new needs changing when I check in warmer weather, I'm going to make my own. Even on-line these filters are very pricey.
