Whoa, that no-microfilter evaporator is hideous!
Wish there was picture documentation of RHD replacement instructions for the microfilter. All I can find is just some text short notes off bmwe34.net, doesn't really convince me of opening up my RHD and see how the microfilter is going...
Its always a good idea to change the filter.

My 89 535i doesn't have a filter but I bet the 91 735i does
For right hand drive cars!
go to my website below, there is under lots of DIY - private links the site linkt to Timm (Tim Meek) in the U.K. , he own an E32 and E38, excellent write up of microfilter change on the E32!
Quite difficult compared to LHD cars. E34 and E32 are basically the same.

7 was build in 11/90. I will need to look in the glove box. Bet ya if it has one it has never been changed.
Am I the only one that hates trying to get the glove box to hang right after doing a job like this?
Nope the glove box is a pain. Takes me three try's to stop it from squeeking
Close the glove box into its latched position first, before you click the hinge locks into their locked position. It's never been a problem for me. Actually a pretty nice system that allows for adjustment. Obviously those complaining have never done a microfilter on an E36! ;)
