Remove the injector cover for a start, this allows much more access...

There are just two 10mm nuts holding it on, so easy to remove.

Once off, you can get both hands down onto the filter and get a good grip to unscrew it. However they are on bl00dy tight so an oil filter removal tool will help you get it off if it cant be done by hand!



Just changed mine and its easy...
