Motorcraft FS-104 seat filter?

[shaker281]

Where are you guys getting these and what are you paying? They seen to range from $30-35. Seems real high given there is not much to it.

Has anyone tried cleaning one? I think I'll wash mine with a weak laundry solution, then rinse and pat dry.

Seat filter? For what, farts?

The heated/cooled seats have filters under them, mainly due to the a/c part of the seats. And who farts in a new car and ruins that "new car" smell??

AKA, the fart filter. My dealer says they aren't covered under the ESP. But those "filters" are pricey.

Amazon has them for $26 shipped, which still seems ridiculous for a 4" round filter. I have cleaned filters before by washing/rinsing/air drying. No way am I paying $52 for both front seats. Do the rears have filters too?

No rear seat filters. Lucky us. I will probably just shop vac them. But I guess if it gets too bad to clean, I can probably just cut out the old filter material, buy some new "filtering" type of material and use a band clamp to attach it to the plastic.

Good thought. A couple layers of swiffer material should get the job done.

Rockauto has them for $18.12 plus shipping. Comes out to $43.52 for 2 shipped for me. That is about as good a price as I have found anywhere.

No filter here... Everyone likes the smell of their own brand.

Check it first. I ordered some and mine were still spotless. My father just cleaned his on his Lincoln MKZ and they came out like brand new. Just food for thought.

They changed recently and the new type are basically nothing. I got a few extra FS 104 Actual filter material from JMR before they changed so that should hold me for a while. The filters are for the Air Conditioned front seats or for that matter any vehicle that has air conditioned seats either front or rear. The biggest determination of life for the filters is how often used.

 

[BlueSHO]

Yeah I read that the new ones have virtually no filter material. Maybe they did that because people were complaining of very little air flow felt through the seats. Good score..

These will be the same knuckleheads complaining in a few months about too much air and particulates getting through.
