Most ES and RXs I have seen have a rectangular panel at the back of the glove box, or a hinge release position to the lower the glove box, releasing the actually box to reveal a filter holder in behind.

Perform steps 1-3 first to inspect whether you have the access doors or not before ordering filters!!!
Did this little project this evening. Figured I'd write it up.
5 Easy steps:
1. Remove glove box door by removing both screws at the bottom of the door.
2. First pop the the little flap with a fuse/relay out of the black plastic shield in the upper portion of the glove box opening. Next push it back behind the shield through the opening. Next remove the 3 screws holding the shield in place. Don't pull this shield out yet!! Read step 3 first.
3. Gently pull the shield out. Be careful because the glove box light is still plugged into this part. It is located on the right side of the shield. Once it is pulled out slightly, unplug the bulb from the harness and now you can fully remove the part.
4. Now you can see the vertical cover where the air filters reside. The cover is about 5 inches tall and about 1 inch wide. It has 2 tabs on the upper portion of the cover. Squeeze these tabs towards each other and pull the cover off.
5. The filters are now exposed. They are stacked on top of each other. Pull the first filter out then lift the next filter up and pull out. Put new filters back in and reverse the procedure.
Parts needed:
2 Cabin air filters (Toyota PN 88568-60010 if you drop CDan a pm)
1 Phillips screw driver
Time needed:
No more than 15 minutes

open the glove box, grasp it firmly and pull straight up on one side and then the other. the box will unsnap from the hinge, once loose lower the box gently and let it hang from the tension cord. behind the box you will see a cover with release clips. remove the cover. pull the filter and tray straight out. be sure to replace the filter proper side up, it will be marked. reassemble.

it is located behind the glove box. the glove box has a compartment separator inside of it. you must pull up and out to remove it. the back of the glove box has a removable panel. remove it. the filter tray will have a cover over it with two snap clips or the fresh air circulator on the dash will have to be set to recirculate to open the cover for the filter.
