This is confusing. How is it that someone who was giving technical advice in another thread, doesn't even know where his AF is?

This is just scary. I'm so loving the caps. I'm' going to have to add another winner to my ignore list.

is the filter easy to change? That piece in front of the filter looks like a tab or latch. Does anyone know if this is a easy task. Dealer wants $115 for 6 screws and a filter!?!?!
