Simple job....

Filters just under the sill on the drivers side at the back.. Unhook the handbrake cable out the way,and remove hoses (you have to pinch and pull),when you see them, you wil understand what i mean.. Then unbolt the filter,fuel WILL spill out,so have somthing to catch it,then make sure you have the NEW filter the right way round,and refit... Job done, and you will be in the pub with in 30mins!!!

You will probably have to release the pressure from the fuel lines.

I couldn't find the fuel pump fuse so once one side is off I just turned the key and then the other side just popped off nice and easy.
