I agree, I thought for sure I was going to break something. It's possible to get it out to the right just take your time. Remember there are a few sneaky screws off to the left that may still be secure.

for me, it was not the plastic piece causing the tight fit, but that metal tap just visible on the left side of the picture.
eneded up looping a thin strap around it and using a winch attached through the inside of the vehicle, through the open hatch to the rear pumper. winched it ever so slightly until I had enough room to pull the door out.
then used my bottle jack to push the problem area back in place.

I just shoved a pry bar in there and bent everything out of the way and prayed nothing would break. Suppose there's more than one way to skin a cat.
well, we all know landcruiser owners reside on the extreme side of the scale

Yes! Glad this thread is still active. Question: anyone know why the post 02s didn’t have the cabin air filter door? Why would it be left out? I change my Tundra’s cabin air filters once a year and they are pretty grimy at that point
What a dolt. I never found the second filter on my various replacements, but this video shows that they are stacked. - around 4 minutes.
Guess I will take it apart again and find the 2nd one.

Always satisfying
Unsure of how old the filters were

Hopefully, you vacuumed out debris and flushed the drip line.
Definitely vacuumed. Did not flush any line however. You're referencing the A/C evaporator drip line?
Where do I access in relation to my photo? I didn't notice it
Coat hanger or some sort of trimmer line to clear? Thanks!

Small port in the back of trough debris is in. Hose attaches to it and comes out firewall. I use compressed air, to blow into hose from firewall. Blow debris out filter area. I set up my shop vac, inside filter areas as I blow.
