I just opened up my cowling on the passenger side to replace it and there was no filter in it. I assume it was not specified for this particular year and model. Undaunted I went to the local Canadian Tire Autoparts store and asked at the parts counter for the Air Filter for the 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix GT (figured the Cabin Filter might come up as an associated search in their data base). Sure enough the Cabin Air Filter that fits perfectly was a FRAM (Fresh Breeze) CF8392A.

The filter came with easy to follow installation guide complete with pictures.

One common problem with this yr/mk/model is the gasket that isolates the Air intake chamber from water entering from the windshield area comes off and lets water get inside the cars fan motor.

I fixed mine by cleaning the grove and used silicone sealant to affix it back in the original placement (moulding sits flush to the outside edge to the left). I used masking tape to hold it in position until the silicone started to set (about 1/2 hour.

The whole time required was 15-20 minutes (not counting silicone drying time)and easy to do. You have to let the silicone set for about 1 hour
