Its in the passenger footwell - the black plastic heater box under the dash, just unscrew the end plate and the filter slides out.

As the four bolts that hold the cover on are recessed, I found that I had to grind a socket down as the socket walls were too thick to fit in the recess.

i would add that it is useful to try fitting your old filter back in after you have taken it out, this way you see the angle it goes in at, i nearly snapped my new filter in half bending it into the housing.

i do try..
if its the little ones i suspect they are sometimes 5.5mm heads
but you could always just get yer feckin socket set out and try?
one's on mine are 6mm
if y'don't find the ground-down socket
a small rubber grommet under each one works fine
leaves the screw/bolt head slightly proud .. easy to get a socket/spanner on ..

I came to the conclusion my model didnt have a pollen filter after searching high and low. I will have another look now!

I remember an old thread saying some did not have them , also sometimes it is good to own a quarter inch drive set it saves grinding down sockets

L-series with AC have no pollen filter fitted.
