First, get a filter and a 7mm 1/4 drive socket:


Then, start pushing out the weather seal clips:


Take the seal off along its whole length:


Lift the corner of the plenum chamber top cover:


Push the clip that holds the filter in place, lift, and slide back towards you:


Take the old filter out of its holder:


Fit the new filter in the holder making sure the black dots are together:


After fitting the filter back push the weather seal clips back in place:

Nice walk-thru

 

How do you know if your pollen filter needs changing?

Great instructions.
Although I drive with the roof down most of the time in summer so it probbaly wouldn't do me any good.
