Thank you for this. Just completed on my 2013 Lonestar Crew with no problems.

Thanks for the write-up:beer:

I saw a kit on that Mopar parts website and I really need to buy it. Could you post back up and let me know how long the install took you?

My allergies are killing me too. Damn pollen :biggun:

Shouldn't take anymore then a 1/2 hour at most.
Use a sharp blade.
You might have to give the upper dash box a good push from the back,after removing the screw,to get it to release,mine was stuck in pretty good

Install took about 10 minutes for me. I dropped the glove box and laid across the seats since I am right handed. Used a new blade in the utility knife and made a few passes on the opening, using the lip for guidance. Super simple.

Not sure what screw people are referring to, I did not remove any screws or parts, other than the glove box.

The upper compartment is held in with a 8mm screw,you don't need it out,but it does make the job easier to do if it's not blocking your sight line.

Roger that. Laying on the seats gave me a direct line of sight. But it wasn't comfy. :D

Great man, thanks for posting back up so quickly. I'm amazed such an important mod only took 10 minutes. This has definitely been added to my list of mods that need to be done ASAP.

I did this mod today using my wife's Dremel tool and it turned out great.
Thanks for the good write up and great pics!

Awesome man, thanks a bunch. That's not a bad price at all. And I'm glad to have proof that it fits on a 2013 before jumping in and trying it myself. Really appreciate it.

No problem. The filter slid in, sticks out a bit just like it said on page one of this thread, and the door snapped closed.
