You guys are killing me. Someone please tell Ryan to simply remove the air cleaner housing...3 bolts?... and then the oil filter is easy to access...Also, you may want to make a small cutout in the lower plastic panel beneath the car so that you can drain the oil without having to remove the lower dust panel. Some will contend that you should never modify anything...while there is some validity to what they say... this is a minor mod for great convenience for the DIY's.
