"Blitz 18724 Hybrid A/C Filter Nissan 350Z Infiniti G35 FX35 FX45
Blitz Performance Hybrid Air Conditioner Filters are high performance air filters that is a direct stock replacements. This filter is powerful against dust and pollen. A perfect affordable upgrade for those who wishes to enjoy A/C. It is reuseable and easy to clean. Just rinse and dry! Help remove strange odors and maintain a clean car."

This is an old thread, but the 350Z has not sprouted an a/c filter yet. But many other Nissan and Infiniti models do have cabin air filters and there's a tendency (even among pros) to think all these front midship (FM) vehicles share ALL thrir features.

The best solution? Just laugh at them and tell them you know better. If they get indignant, make a cash bet and have them do a visual tear down while you watch.
