i just did mine yesterday, its not necassary to remove/move the fuse box. just get a long extension.

other than that, the DIY is awesome and makes it as easy as an oil change.

Does that reset the Maintenance Minder the same as the standard method of pushing/holding the MID buttons?

The ECU and the maintenance light are two different things. To reset the MID, there are directions in your owner's manual.

Here are the directions as well:
