Default Fuel filter change

As my Scoob doesn't have a warranty that I need to maintain, i've decided that i'm going to do all the servicing myself as I don't see why I should pay a dealer to do it for me, plus i'm hoping to learn a bit along the way.
I'm working through the service schedule steadily, and i've reached the fuel filter change.

Is this easy to do?

Can anyone give me a description of what's involved with changing it.

Any help welcome

Very easy..

Leave car over night so fuel pressure has dropped..

take new filter and locate old under the bonnet.. passenger side suspension turret.

Remove the two fuel lines and undo clamp around the filter.. from memory you lift a lever outwards to losen its grip on the filter.
Fit new one..

Job done in 5minutes.
