Engine Air Filter DIY?
Can anyone recommend a good instructional video on how to swap the engine air filters in the X166 GL63 or GL550?

Pull the 3 cosmetic plastic panels off the top of engine.
Loosen the rear band clamp screw at the air box inlet, un-clip the forward electrical connection on the air box, pull air box up and back, it just clamps on.
On the bottom of the air box are 4x torx screws to separate the halves and replace the filter inside.
Pop air box back in place. *Don't forget to re-connect the electrical connection and tighten the band clamp.
Repeat for other side.
