Here is what the factory is saying

PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AIR FILTER REPLACEMENT
This Article has been updated by bulletin #PIT3330, dated December 22, 2004.

Condition/Concern:
A customer may inquire about the availability of the passenger compartment air filter.

Recommendation/Instructions:
Starting in 2003 model year, the passenger compartment air filter is no longer available as a factory option. With the redesigned HVAC case, there is no longer a cavity for the filter. The GM parts catalog indicates there is a replacement filter available; however, there is no provision for it.

Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Hi there ,

GM stopped using cabin air filters in 2003 and up. I attached a warranty article from GM below.

However, here is a video to show you how to do the filters if your truck is so equipped.

Please let us know if you have other questions.

remove the instrument panel sound insulator from under the right side of the instrument panel. then remove teh insulator from the HVAC module and you should then see the filter access door.
