Hi guys, I'm new here.
I have the same problem with my dad's LC 100. The cabin air filter only goes in half way. But I have a solution for people who already bought the cabin air filter.
All you have to do is cut it in half

Notice I labeled 1 and 2
This will only work if you put 1 into the slot first. (It's shaped like that for a reason) If you put 2 in first it wont go down. There will be something in the way.

What's left to do is put the cover back on and screw everything back to place.
Hope this helped you guys out.
P.S : I sawed off too much of 2. So it's wobbling a bit, I ended up jaming a piece of paper so it wouldn't wobble around. Just saw off 1 according to my picture and 2 will hopefully have a tight fit.
