it's just inside the engine bay on the drivers side... near the firewall behind the driver's seat. close to the bottom of the bay.

I found it easier to change if the rear driver wheel was removed... it' just more room to work with.

no problem...

1) remove rear driver wheel.
2) remove intake piping ( I have 3" pipe with k&n ) it was just easier to remove the top banjo bolt on the fuel filter with the intake off... not sure if YOU have to do that way... but figured I'd tell you anyway.
3) then remove the upper banjo bolt on the fuel filter (14mm I think)
4) then the lower banjo bolt... let the fuel drain a bit, then move the lines away so you can work.
5) loosen the 10mm bolt on the filter "strap"... it holds the filter in position...
6) remove the filter, then install the new one... that simple.
7) once everything is connected and torqued... turn the ignition to the acc. mark.... one click prior ot engaging the starter... it should turn everything on (electronically) and allow fuel to refill the lines and filter..... then you should be good to go
