DIY - Green Filter Air Filter Replacement for SLK350 - 20 minutes
Did this on Saturday. Bought a pair (2) of Green Filters (#2247) from Amazon for $76 shipped. ($38 each)
Tools Required: Torx-25 Screwdriver, Some cleaning supplies.
Follow the pictures below, fairly simple. I went ahead and cleaned the inner parts of the airbox with some diluted Simple Green solution.

nice pics and descriptions. might be a torx 20 and not a 25. reason i say torx 20 is i only have one and used it to install the smarttop and needed a 20 to remove side panel.

The tutorials say T-20, but I had much better luck with the T-25. The T-20 worked when I first installed the filters, but it started to slip when I wanted to clean them a few months later. The T-25 fit perfectly.
