Thanks for the excellent instructions. I have a couple additions that I would like to share:
I just did my cabin filter on my 1999 9-3 CV yesterday. I found that I did not need to disconnect the washer or completely remove the wiper motor. I moved the upper cover out of the way and left the hose attached. My car lives in my garage so there was not a not of leaves or other junk in the filter area. I losened the bolt on the part of the wiper assembly directly over the filter and was able slip the old filter out and the new one in (remember to retighten the wiper assembly). I found that you should remove the lower cover from the driver's side as it has a part that goes into the fender assembly on the passenger's side.
When reinstalling the upper cover it is best to slide it us towards the windshield so that it can seat properly under the lower windshield molding. Be careful not to dislodge either of the rubber washers around the wiper post assembly on the top cover. One of the washers came off when I was reinstalling the upper cover so I needed to remove the cover again to replace the washer.
All in all a very easy project that took me about an hour including several redos and 10 minutes to find my work light. Now that I have done it, I think it will take me about 20 minutes to do it again.
