If you've tried to change your pollen filter on a right hand drive car, then you'll know what a fiddle it is.

This year I accidentally picked up the right sized piece of timber up to wedge the clutch pedal down, and it's 65cm.

It fits beautifully between the left hand seat runner and the pedal, and it makes the job a breeze.

Disconnect the wiring bundle with the connector, and push the other one up, and out of the way.

Anyway, it's a job that you don't need to fear, with a 65cm stick.

Cheers.

The one thing I hated when changing the filter is the bottom 5.5mm screw that holds the filter hatch/cover on, too damn tight to get a ratchet and socket in without binding on the steering column. I actually trimmed the piece of plastic off the hatch that holds that screw head captive and now I can get it with a 5.5mm spanner.

My 2011 example just presses in.
