This is one of those cut to size filters from the hardware store
like this one, except I'm not sure of which filtration level I bought
Web 25 in. x 30 in. x 1 in. Eco Plus Adjustable FPR 4 Air Filter-WP2530FPR - The Home Depot

I'm pretty sure the little clip rings came with the filter, meant to clip the filter element to the black grid
As you can see I clipped them through the AC's diffuser grill

I mentioned this to you before, but for others' benefit, I would suggest not getting a very high filtration level. I found that mine restricts airflow a bit more than I'd like.....and yeah, I can see it's a bit dirty now

Anyway, my suggestion is to get some hardware cloth or something similar, along with some new filter media that's just a bit stiffer then the old stuff and zip tie it like mine is....

I like what you have done.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.
