Default hepa filters

Hi,

do you know if it is possible to add hepa filters to an old honda accord 1990 petrol?
and is it worth it, in the sense that the air that enters the car is actually filtered?

thanks a lot

That car does not have an in cabin air filter so no, you can't add a HEPA air filter.

I mean sure, but that's a lot of effort for that. Is the blower powerful enough to compensate on such an old vehcle btw?

I have no idea. Who would be able to design such a piece? Someone available?
It could be an interesting project

can always cut filters and stick them over the vents themselves. Same effect

If you can get these old vents out without breaking them, it'll work, but then changing the filters would be a pain.Id say try cuting one and sticking it on the outside of the vent as an experiement, see if it works (and if you still get breeze) then decide
