The instructions are ok and also apply to the C32. Skip step 1 and just remove the fuel cap to relieve any fuel pressure. Depending on the kind of jack you use, you may need to remove the rear driver side wheel. You may get by without removing the "belly pan" aka cover below main floor, left. Just undo some of the plastic nuts in the back. The rest is a simple remove and replace. Check for leaks. Turn the key twice to position 2 without starting to prime the system. Then start the car. Good luck.

just did this on my C32, not difficult at all. the only parts that are slightly annoying are getting all the stock clamps off the hoses that feed in and out of the fuel filter and all the gas that spills out isn't too fun either. good luck!

I just changed mine yesterday. Easiest way to remove the old clamps without the correct tool is just a tiny screwdriver to pop them off. Don't have your face in the way a bit of fuel leaks out but it doesn't keep running out.
