Hi, I’m Mike from 1A Auto. We’ve been selling auto parts for over 30 years!
Open the hood, go inside, the latch is way down here, by your left foot. Hood release for the safety is under here, lift it up. Hood has two positions: there's one here, and it also has a service position down here. Push the hood way open—this way you don't bump your head into the hood.
Air filter’s located in the air box here on the driver’s side. There's three metal clips holding it on, and it slides into two plastic tabs on this side towards the shock tower. Unclip all these, push them down, and unlock them. It'll lift up on the air box, and it'll slide out of these pins. Kind of pick it up and slide the air filter out. It's got some leaves stuck in it.
Take a new air filter, wider parts going to go towards the bottom. This sort of flat part goes towards the intake. Lift this up, slide it down into place, and sit right in the air box. Get the cover down and slide it past these harnesses. Make sure the filters seated in there. These tabs are going to go into here, like that, and push it down. Pull up on the locks. The air filters replaced. Put the prop right back in its spot. You're all set.
