Default New fuel filter

Hi guys,
I think I need to replace the fuel filter on my 05 WRX. Does anyone know if this is a complex job?
Cheers in advance.

Absolute piece of p..

Presuming you know where it's located (clamped to the inside of the front n/s suspension turret), just make sure the fuel system is de-pressurized (best doing it after the car has sat unstarted overnight when pressure has decayed). Clamp the hoses connected to the old filter as close as possible to filter then remove and replace. Be with plenty of clean rags to soak up some petrol as even following the above you will still get some spillage.

About to do my 05 for the second time in it's life (every 20k for me)..
