I don't have pics, but if it's anything like the C55 it's easy. You have to remove the airbox and then the MAF to get behind the engine and onto the top of the trans on the driver's side of the car. I was laying on top of my intake manifold when I did it lol. It's just one bolt to hold it in and an electrical connector that it plugs into. A mirror helps to find the piece. I did not have a universal joint at the time but it will be much easier with one. If you have a long ratchet extension I would use that with a u-joint and it will be no problem. I ended up putting both my 6" and 3" extensions together, removing the far back ignition coil on driver's side, and it gave me just enough room to be able to turn the ratchet and break the bolt loose.

Btw, it's an e-torx socket for the bolt.
