Replacing stock air filter?

Alright, I looked in the how to section and couldn't find this. Has anyone replaced the stock air filter themselves? Last time I talked to the dealership they told me it was due at my next service, but that I should probably do it myself because they would charge me 1.5 hours for the job. Apparently it is a pain to get to. Just wanted to see if anyone had done this themselves before and if they had any tips/instructions they could share.

Take of the left wheel and tire to access the filter box there are a couple retainer to remove then pop the filter out, simple task it will only take 15-30 minutes on how experienced you are and if you have the tools to do it. good luck. screw the dealer do it yourself.
