Replacing the cabin air filters on a 2023 Tesla Model Y

First, the air conditioning system was deactivated. Although the seat was not moved fully rearward, it did not obstruct the process. The rubber mat was removed, followed by the passenger footwell cover, which was detached using the provided tool by removing two screws. Disconnection of the two electrical connectors was not required. I hardly needed the trim tool to pop loose the side trim panel on the center consol. Removal of the cabin filter cover was straightforward. The removal of the old filters and the installation of the new ones were completed without any issues. Reinstalling the filter cover, the footwell cover, and the side trim proceeded smoothly.
