Air filter installation

How hard it is to replace Air filter, I saw instructions in the manual, seems pretty easy, is it?

Does anyone know part number for Mobil 1 oil filter??

Thanks

It's a tit. I think there are 4 bolts. Take the old filter out, then throw in your new K&N like it did.

Only 2 bolts; Also unhook that O shaped gizmo containing a wire that gets in your way. There are 2 plastic hooks that hook on the backside. The one closest to the passenger compartment is a little hard to get to when reinstalling- I used a flathead screwdriver to bend the female connector down to snap it in.

Get a CAI... Then you just have to clean the filter, never replace it!

The cold air intake (CAI) replaces the stock airbox and resonator. About 200 bucks and adds about 8-10whp. And it makes a badass growl in the higher RPMs. The best performance mod for the buck...
