I have one in it, it's they only stop debris not really fumes?

it's funny, we got a 3d printer to play with and the kid wanted a air vent propeller thingy. clips in the vent and spins with air. as you speed up to highway speeds you can see it start spinning from the extra air coming in. The recirculate flap seems to move correctly, and it is worse when not in recirculate. but it's kinda wild haha. never noticed it in any other car.
You can get a replacement filter that has the charcoal in it that does smells, etc
I did the retrofit to put a filter in my Yukon. I found the filter on RA

I have used the stickers on 2 GMT900’s and both look perfect day and night. The trick is to scrape the centers off, the part that’s under the symbol areas that show through when lit and leave the black around the outer edges so that part doesn’t bleed through when lit. My Silverado control is over $400 new, not sure what the Tahoe would have been but it’t pretty silly to me to replace them when an hour of work and $10 worth of stickers makes them look new. Plus the new ones will eventually wear off. The vinyl stickers should last longer. ****** GM design on them. Use tweezers to place the stickers for accuracy. They can be repositioned until perfect. Just pay attention to the reveals.

looks very nice.

my recirculation button is already showing wear. I have the 2nd set around here somewhere. I might try removing the black center next time.
