Well, I thought it was time to check the air filter on the Spyder. took the panels off that it tells you to in the manuel (mirror included). When the sound panel is out of the way you'll get to the airbox.
At first glance it seems like it will be hard to get the filter out, the key here is don't be shy. After flipping open the 3 snaps Wiggle and push the box apart,, and you can work the filter out. You can curve it towards the rear of the spyder and it will come out. Mine wasn't dirty so I put it back in reverse order. I didn't need to replace it but it was a good Exercise to learn how to do it. Not bad once you start, by the way, I have an extra screw if anyone needs one. If a panel seems a little loose or not lineing up you have forgot one of the push-pins. Yep! I did that too.
