To be certain, you should:
* Consult your owner's manual: This is the best resource for the exact location and instructions on how to replace the filter.
* Search online: Use a search engine like Google or Bing, searching for "1997 Chrysler Town & Country air filter location" along with images. Visual aids can be very helpful.
Remember that the air filter housing may be different depending on the engine size in your vehicle (3.3L, 3.8L). The visuals from online searches will likely help you confirm which housing is yours.
