I just bought K&N air filter from autoanything.com
Is there any DIY for its installation? If not, anyone can help me? This will be the first time I'm tinkering with my car so I'm a beginner

theres three clips to the air box lid.. its all located on the driver's side of the engine. just unclip and lift the lid and youll see the stock orange filter. just remove it and replace it with the k&n. also on the lid when you lift it up theres a charcoal filter attached. alotta people take that off if they do have it. eh sorry not that good an explanation and it isnt detailed.. hopefully someone could help out and elaborate
