Please do a search.
There is a a whole thread that shows you how to R&R the air filters.

Just a hint, you only need 1, maybe two strong hands to change the air filters.

BC.

thanks, got the cover off and saw that i can not see the filters without unscrewing their housing on the sides. i also was able to remove the mb intake hoses that are connected to the cover, does any filter go into that? i guess the kn filters fit but now i need to get someone who has them in chicago and who can install them.

the filters cost me 45Cad$ each, so yours should be about 30U$ each plus the price of the screwdriver. The cabin filter is about 30 bucks also, good luck

Filters cost me $38.99 each. $84.02 after tax.

The Torx driver for the intake is a T-25 (don't know if that had been said).

Process:
1) Remove left and right intake tubes from airbox.
2) Remove airbox from engine (rubber grommets - just pull)
3) Turn airbox over remove 4 screws on each filter cover.
4) Replace filter in same orientation as OEM
5) Do steps 1-3 backwards.
