Default Engine Air Filter-Hopes for better Fuel Economy Scion XA 07'

Hello All,

Does anyone know where I can find detailed instructions on replacing my engine air filter? It looks simple enough...but I'm wondering if it's too simple. I'd like not to get ripped off by the dealership if possible....

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Christopher

All you have to do is find a high flow air filter that is the same size as the (Stock?) one that you currently have, lift the air filter out of the air box and replace it. Very simple.
