There is no need to remove the battery power for this installation. Regardless, if you ever do need to remove the battery, it might be a good idea to pick up a $5 plug in power adapter for the cigarette lighter, just to maintain all of the vehicle's memory settings. I don't think the job is onerous or difficult, even for a guy my size! I would suggest though, that you put an old towel or similar on the floor before you pull out the filter. There may be a "gush" of cr*p that comes out and it is best to catch it before it gets on the carpets.

I did a post on this about a year ago, with photos. The biggest surprise was the difference in the weight of the old vs the new filter. Testimony to the amount of stuff that the filter caught!
